[Haskell-cafe] Fw: Data.Hashable instance generation?

Hello again, Thanks to Eric, I changed my problem from generic instance deriving to explicit instance writing. Now I could evoke a more specific - and alarming! - error message: ---- import Data.HashMap.Lazy as HM import Data.Hashable data Colour = Red | Green | Blue deriving Enum instance Hashable Colour where hashWithSalt = hashUsing fromEnum ---- GHCi, version 7.6.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done.

Hi Matti, This example relies on generic instance deriving, which was only added in hashable 1.2.0.0, so you need that version or later. For older versions, you'll have to write your own Hashable instance implementation. Regards, Erik On Mon, Jun 15, 2015 at 10:05 AM, Matti Nykänen wrote:

Hello,

A practical question about getting hashing to work.

Having used Data.Map before, I wanted to try Data.HashMap.Lazy instead: ---- {-# LANGUAGE DeriveGeneric #-}

import Data.HashMap.Lazy as HM

import GHC.Generics (Generic) import Data.Hashable

data Colour = Red | Green | Blue deriving Generic

instance Hashable Colour

foo = HM.insert Red ---- The data and its instance definition are directly from the web page https://hackage.haskell.org/package/hashable-1.2.1.0/docs/Data-Hashable.html.

However, I det the following error: ---- GHCi, version 7.6.3: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loading package ghc-prim ... linking ... done. Loading package integer-gmp ... linking ... done. Loading package base ... linking ... done. [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( htest.hs, interpreted )

htest.hs:13:8: No instance for (hashable-1.1.2.5:Data.Hashable.Hashable Colour) arising from a use of `insert' Possible fix: add an instance declaration for (hashable-1.1.2.5:Data.Hashable.Hashable Colour) In the expression: insert Red In an equation for `foo': foo = insert Red Failed, modules loaded: none. ---- I do not know what is wrong or how I could fix it.

Note that my Haskell had originally the older hashable-1.0.0 package, but I cabal-installed this hashable-1.1.2.5 because surfing the net suggested that it would be much better. Could it be the case that the instance goes somehow in the wrong class? -- Matti Nykänen _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
