recover-rtti-0.6.1: src/Debug/RecoverRTTI/Wrappers.hs

-- | Newtype wrappers
--
-- For some types, we infer a "wrapped type" instead. It is important that
-- these wrappers are all /newtypes/ and not /datatypes, because when we have
-- a value @x :: a@ and a corresponding classifier @Classifier a@, we should be
-- able to @unsafeCoerce x@ to whatever type the classifier tells us. If we
-- don't use newtypes but datatypes here, then that would not be possible.
--
-- We use these newtypes primarily so that we can give some custom type class
-- instances. In particular, this means that for example our inferred functions
-- have a show instance, even if they are simply shown as @<Fun>@; this is
-- nonetheless stil useful, as it means that we can show /everything/, which is
-- kind of the point.

-- | As-yet-unknown type

-- See t'Debug.RecoverRTTI.Classifier' for detailed discussion.
newtype Deferred = Deferred Any

-- | User-defined type
--
-- We tried to infer a type, but it's a type that is not explicitly recognized
-- by @recover-rtti@. Such values will be printed using a generic "constructor
-- with arguments" approach.
--
-- If desired, domain specific type inference can be done; see
-- 'Debug.RecoverRTTI.reclassify_'.
newtype UserDefined = UserDefined Any

  Functions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------}

-- | Functions

-- We do not try to infer the domain or codomain of the function.
newtype SomeFun = SomeFun (Any -> Any)

{-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Reference cells

  We do not try to look inside these variables to figure out the type of their
  elements; the show instance merely shows an address.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------}

newtype SomeSTRef = SomeSTRef (STRef Any Any)
  deriving (Eq)

newtype SomeMVar = SomeMVar (MVar Any)
  deriving (Eq)

newtype SomeTVar = SomeTVar (TVar Any)
  deriving (Eq)

{-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Arrays

  For mutable arrays, we don't currently peek inside, and so we don't infer
  the type of the elements. We /could/ (in principle this would be sound),
  and we may wish to change this at some point. For the purposes of /show/,
  however, having this type inferred it's particularly useful, unless we define
  a `peekAnythingToString :: a -> IO String` function or something like that
  which could look inside mutable structures (references, arrays, ..).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------}

newtype SomePrimArrayM = SomePrimArrayM (Prim.MutableArray RealWorld Any)

-- | Storable vector ("Data.Vector.Storable")
--
-- For storable arrays we have no hope of inferring the type of the elements:
-- the elements are not stored as pointers, but rather as " serialized " data
-- through the 'Storable' type class. In order to get at any element, we'd need
-- to have the corresponding 'Storable' instance, but of course we don't have it
-- if we don't have the type.
newtype SomeStorableVector = SomeStorableVector Any

-- | Mutable storage vector ("Data.Vector.Storable")
--
-- See 'SomeStorableVector' for some details on why we don't infer anything here.
newtype SomeStorableVectorM = SomeStorableVectorM Any

-- | Primitive vector ("Data.Vector.Primitive")
--
-- See 'SomeStorableVector' for why we can't classify elements of these vectors.
newtype SomePrimitiveVector = SomePrimitiveVector Any

-- | Mutable primitive vector
newtype SomePrimitiveVectorM = SomePrimitiveVectorM Any

-- | Mutable byte array
newtype SomeMutableByteArray = SomeMutableByteArray (Prim.MutableByteArray RealWorld)

{-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Show instances

  Unfortunately reference cells are moved by GC, so we can't do much here;
  showing the address of the variable isn't particularly helpful.

  We /could/ use @unsafePerformIO@ here to display the /contents/ of these
  variables and mutable arrays, but that would not be referentially transparent;
  unlike 'classify', that would not be morally pure. In principle we could offer
  such a "display and peek inside mutable references" as a separate function.
