Hello, Am I correct in thinking that with reify that I can not find the names of the read/write accessors rel1 and rel2 from the following? data SmallDB = SmallDB { rel1 :: Set.Set String , rel2 :: Set.Set Integer } deriving Show I thought about quoting the above and splicing it in, but as you can't quote and splice back into the same module and due to type dependencies this could result in a mess of recursive modules. I also though of generating the above from a union type. i.e. using data SmallDB = DBREL1 String | DBREL2 Integer to generate the above. Then I would know the names of the accessors. However I think it is not possible to have type dependencies based on data constuctors? Actually, is this what GADT's allow one to do? Does template haskell support GADT's`? i.e. with reify and syntax structure wise? Rene.
