type Kind = Type

The key type representing kinds in the compiler. Invariant: a kind is always in one of these forms:

 FunTy k1 k2
 TyConApp PrimTyCon [...]
 TyVar kv   -- (during inference only)
 ForAll ... -- (for top-level coercions)
unliftedTypeKind :: Kind

kindVarRef :: KindVar -> IORef MetaDetails
mkKindVar :: Unique -> IORef MetaDetails -> KindVar
data Type
The key representation of types within the compiler
show/hide Instances
data PredType

A type of the form PredTy p represents a value whose type is the Haskell predicate p, where a predicate is what occurs before the => in a Haskell type. It can be expanded into its representation, but:

  • The type checker must treat it as opaque
  • The rest of the compiler treats it as transparent

Consider these examples:

 f :: (Eq a) => a -> Int
 g :: (?x :: Int -> Int) => a -> Int
 h :: (r\l) => {r} => {l::Int | r}

Here the Eq a and ?x :: Int -> Int and rl are all called "predicates"

Constructors
ClassP Class [Type]Class predicate e.g. Eq a
IParam (IPName Name) TypeImplicit parameter e.g. ?x :: Int
EqPred Type TypeEquality predicate e.g ty1 ~ ty2
show/hide Instances
type ThetaType = [PredType]
A collection of PredTypes
mkForAllTy :: TyVar -> Type -> Type
mkForAllTys :: [TyVar] -> Type -> Type
Wraps foralls over the type using the provided TyVars from left to right
mkFunTy :: Type -> Type -> Type
Creates a function type from the given argument and result type
mkFunTys :: [Type] -> Type -> Type
zipFunTys :: Outputable a => [a] -> Type -> ([(a, Type)], Type)
Splits off argument types from the given type and associating them with the things in the input list from left to right. The final result type is returned, along with the resulting pairs of objects and types, albeit with the list of pairs in reverse order. Panics if there are not enough argument types for the input list.
mkTyConApp :: TyCon -> [Type] -> Type
A key function: builds a TyConApp or FunTy as apppropriate to its arguments. Applies its arguments to the constructor from left to right
mkAppTy :: Type -> Type -> Type
Applies a type to another, as in e.g. k a
mkAppTys :: Type -> [Type] -> Type
applyTy :: Type -> Type -> Type

Instantiate a forall type with one or more type arguments. Used when we have a polymorphic function applied to type args:

 f t1 t2

We use applyTys type-of-f [t1,t2] to compute the type of the expression. Panics if no application is possible.

applyTys :: Type -> [Type] -> Type

This function is interesting because:

1. The function may have more for-alls than there are args

2. Less obviously, it may have fewer for-alls

For case 2. think of:

 applyTys (forall a.a) [forall b.b, Int]

This really can happen, via dressing up polymorphic types with newtype clothing. Here's an example:

 newtype R = R (forall a. a->a)
 foo = case undefined :: R of
            R f -> f ()
mkTyVarTy :: TyVar -> Type
mkTyVarTys :: [TyVar] -> [Type]
mkTyConTy :: TyCon -> Type
Create the plain type constructor type which has been applied to no type arguments at all.
mkPredTy :: PredType -> Type
mkPredTys :: ThetaType -> [Type]
data TvSubst

Type substitution

The following invariants must hold of a TvSubst:

1. The in-scope set is needed only to guide the generation of fresh uniques

2. In particular, the kind of the type variables in the in-scope set is not relevant

3. The substition is only applied ONCE! This is because in general such application will not reached a fixed point.

Constructors
TvSubst InScopeSet TvSubstEnv
show/hide Instances
type TvSubstEnv = TyVarEnv Type
A substitition of Types for TyVars
emptyTvSubst :: TvSubst
substEqSpec :: TvSubst -> [(TyVar, Type)] -> [(TcType, TcType)]
mkOpenTvSubst :: TvSubstEnv -> TvSubst
Generates the in-scope set for the TvSubst from the types in the incoming environment, hence open
zipOpenTvSubst :: [TyVar] -> [Type] -> TvSubst
Generates the in-scope set for the TvSubst from the types in the incoming environment, hence open
zipTopTvSubst :: [TyVar] -> [Type] -> TvSubst
mkTopTvSubst :: [(TyVar, Type)] -> TvSubst
Called when doing top-level substitutions. Here we expect that the free vars of the range of the substitution will be empty.

Substitute within a ThetaType
substTyVar :: TvSubst -> TyVar -> Type
substTyVars :: TvSubst -> [TyVar] -> [Type]
substTyVarBndr :: TvSubst -> TyVar -> (TvSubst, TyVar)
isUnLiftedType :: Type -> Bool
See Type#type_classification for what an unlifted type is
isUnboxedTupleType :: Type -> Bool
isPrimitiveType :: Type -> Bool
Returns true of types that are opaque to Haskell. Most of these are unlifted, but now that we interact with .NET, we may have primtive (foreign-imported) types that are lifted
tidyTopType :: Type -> Type
Calls tidyType on a top-level type (i.e. with an empty tidying environment)
tidyType :: TidyEnv -> Type -> Type
tidyPred :: TidyEnv -> PredType -> PredType
tidyTypes :: TidyEnv -> [Type] -> [Type]
tidyFreeTyVars :: TidyEnv -> TyVarSet -> TidyEnv
Add the free TyVars to the env in tidy form, so that we can tidy the type they are free in
tidyOpenType :: TidyEnv -> Type -> (TidyEnv, Type)
Grabs the free type variables, tidies them and then uses tidyType to work over the type itself
tidyOpenTypes :: TidyEnv -> [Type] -> (TidyEnv, [Type])
tidyTyVarBndr :: TidyEnv -> TyVar -> (TidyEnv, TyVar)

This tidies up a type for printing in an error message, or in an interface file.

It doesn't change the uniques at all, just the print names.

tidyOpenTyVar :: TidyEnv -> TyVar -> (TidyEnv, TyVar)
Treat a new TyVar as a binder, and give it a fresh tidy name using the environment if one has not already been allocated. See also tidyTyVarBndr
