I think uvector only works with certain types that can be unboxed, while storablevector works with all types that instantiate Foreign.Storable.Storable. I don't know about vector. From the description of vector, I have the
That's interesting. I'd expect Storable and UA to have the same set of inhabitants. Is there any difference?
if uavector use ghc's built-in unboxed array operations (as Data.Array.Unboxed does) then it's necessarily bounded to types supported by those operations btw, i have extended this set in my own library by making a class which has implementation using those operations but may be extended further. OTOH, nowadays when ForeignArrays becomes as fast as built-in ones, i don't see any reasons for these built-in operations at all -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
