You could always do a Coyoneda transform. data IntSetF a = IntSetF !IntSet (Int -> a) The Functor and Foldable instances are pretty obvious from it. Similarly with your Enumerator idea. On Wed, Sep 5, 2018, 05:56 Johannes Waldmann < johannes.waldmann@htwk-leipzig.de> wrote:
Hi David,
Thanks for responding. Let me re-phrase the technical question: in some hypothetical
instance Foldable Enumerator where ...
the methods (e.g., foldMap) would be overconstrained. Is there a way to still write something like it?
It seems not, as shown by these examples:
Data.EnumSet cannot implement Foldable because of Enum k. http://hackage.haskell.org/package/enummapset/docs/Data-EnumSet.html
Data.IntSet cannot implement Foldable because of k ~ Int.
