I'd like to add this representation type to GHC.Generics and !DeriveGeneric. {{{ newtype (f :->: g) a = FArrow1 (f a -> g a) }}} We could then represent the first example above. We could also derive the more interesting Generic1 (F g). {{{ newtype F g a = F (g a -> Int) deriving Generic1 type instance Rep1 (F g) = Rec1 g :->: Rec0 Int instance Generic1 (F g) where to x = F $ unRec0 . unArrow1 x .

I'm suggesting this feature without strong motivating examples because I think this would streamline the implementation of -XDeriveGenerics in some ways while also making it more general — assuming that we added the Invariant class to base or ghc-prim. {{{ class Invariant t where invmap :: (a -> b) -> (b -> a) -> t a -> t b invmap_covariant :: Functor t => (a -> b) -> (b -> a) -> t a -> t b invmap_covariant f _ = fmap f instance (Invariant f,Invariant g) => Invariant (FArrow f g) where invmap co contra (FArrow h) = FArrow $ invmap co contra . h . invmap contra co }}} (Of course, Invariant should be a super class of Functor. :/ ) Now we can handle quite involved examples: {{{ newtype F g h a = F (g (h a)) deriving Generic1 instance Invariant g => Generic1 (F g h) where to x = invmap unRec1 Rec1 $ unComp1 x from (F x) = Comp1 $ invmap Rec1 unRec1 }}} All of that said, I'm mostly opening this ticket so I can get feedback on difficulties I might not be anticipating and have a place to reference from the compiler source code comments. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8516> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Linking RedundantCase ... }}} In the first case it warns about the wrong patterns, in the second case it warns about all patterns and a non-exhaustive pattern list. In the following three cases using `Integer` the warnings seem to be correct. The next case shows that I can suppress the warning if I hide the constant nature of the case selector a bit. Then a case on a `String` - GHC does not seem to try to detect redundant pattern matches but falls back to a general test on exhaustive pattern lists. Finally, in a constant `case` on `Bool` I can avoid the warning using a plain `if-then-else`. Now I wonder what the purpose of the warning is at all. First I thought that it wants to warn me, that the patterns overlap, i.e. pattern `_` contains the already handled case `0`. This does not seem to be the purpose of the warning - and such overlapping patterns are pretty common, aren't they? Second thought: GHC wants to warn me about redundant patterns in the presence of a constant case selector. But then, it does so with varying degrees of success: For `Integer` it works, but not for `Int` or `String`. Is it really only about constant case selectors? Then, not only some pattern matches are redundant but the whole `case` clause is redundant. Then again, can't we assume that the programmer wrote such a `case` clause by intend? At least, this is how I use a `case` clause with constant selector: as a type-safe way to out-comment alternative implementations. Thus my question: Where is this warning useful? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14546> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#11066: Inacessible branch should be warning - otherwise breaks type soundness? -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: rrnewton | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: GHC rejects Unknown/Multiple | valid program Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- GHC 7.10.2 reports inaccessible branches as a type error, and I think this is really a bug. First, the implicit thinking seems to be "why would a user want to write inaccessible cases, they'd be crazy!". But that only applies to human-written code. Program generators can have a great deal of trouble avoiding this error, unless they replicate the GHC type checker to predict the problem and prune branches. (That's why we are hitting this error and are stuck.) Second, it seems like this is a problem for type soundness. See the attached program where "step1" typechecks but "step2" does not. And yet, the operational semantics should allow step1 to reduce to step2. Indeed, in the "GADTs meet their match" paper it seems like the intent was to warn for these inaccessible cases, not error. For example, the paper contains the language: "If we warn that a right-hand side of a non-redundant clause is inaccessible," -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11066> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
