Description
"Scrap your boilerplate" --- Generic programming in Haskell See http://www.cs.vu.nl/boilerplate/. The present module provides a number of declarations for typical generic function types, corresponding type case, and others.

Combinators to "make" generic functions via cast
mkT :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => (b -> b) -> a -> a
Make a generic transformation; start from a type-specific case; preserve the term otherwise
mkQ :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => r -> (b -> r) -> a -> r
Make a generic query; start from a type-specific case; return a constant otherwise
mkM :: (Monad m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => (b -> m b) -> a -> m a
Make a generic monadic transformation; start from a type-specific case; resort to return otherwise
mkMp :: (MonadPlus m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => (b -> m b) -> a -> m a
Make a generic monadic transformation for MonadPlus; use "const mzero" (i.e., failure) instead of return as default.
mkR :: (MonadPlus m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => m b -> m a
Make a generic builder; start from a type-specific ase; resort to no build (i.e., mzero) otherwise
ext0 :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => c a -> c b -> c a
Flexible type extension
extT :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => (a -> a) -> (b -> b) -> a -> a
Extend a generic transformation by a type-specific case
extQ :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => (a -> q) -> (b -> q) -> a -> q
Extend a generic query by a type-specific case
extM :: (Monad m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => (a -> m a) -> (b -> m b) -> a -> m a
Extend a generic monadic transformation by a type-specific case
extMp :: (MonadPlus m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => (a -> m a) -> (b -> m b) -> a -> m a
Extend a generic MonadPlus transformation by a type-specific case
extB :: (Typeable a, Typeable b) => a -> b -> a
Extend a generic builder
extR :: (Monad m, Typeable a, Typeable b) => m a -> m b -> m a
Extend a generic reader
Type synonyms for generic function types
type GenericT = forall a . Data a => a -> a
Generic transformations, i.e., take an "a" and return an "a"
type GenericQ r = forall a . Data a => a -> r
Generic queries of type "r", i.e., take any "a" and return an "r"
type GenericM m = forall a . Data a => a -> m a
Generic monadic transformations, i.e., take an "a" and compute an "a"
type GenericB = forall a . Data a => a
Generic builders i.e., produce an "a".
type GenericR m = forall a . Data a => m a
Generic readers, say monadic builders, i.e., produce an "a" with the help of a monad "m".
type Generic c = forall a . Data a => a -> c a
The general scheme underlying generic functions assumed by gfoldl; there are isomorphisms such as GenericT = Generic T.
data Generic' c

Wrapped generic functions; recall: [Generic c] would be legal but [Generic' c] not.
