Main Annotation data types

Represents an annotation after it has been sufficiently desugared from it's initial form of HsDecls.AnnDecl

Constructors

Annotation
Fields ann_target :: CoreAnnTarget The target of the annotation ann_value :: Serialized `Serialized` version of the annotation that allows recovery of its value or can be persisted to an interface file

Instances

Outputable Annotation

data AnnTarget name Source

An annotation target

Constructors

NamedTarget name	We are annotating something with a name: a type or identifier
ModuleTarget Module	We are annotating a particular module

Instances

Functor AnnTarget
Outputable name => Outputable (AnnTarget name)
Uniquable name => Uniquable (AnnTarget name)
Binary name => Binary (AnnTarget name)

type CoreAnnTarget = AnnTarget Name Source

The kind of annotation target found in the middle end of the compiler

getAnnTargetName_maybe :: AnnTarget name -> Maybe nameSource

AnnEnv for collecting and querying Annotations

data AnnEnv Source

A collection of annotations

mkAnnEnv :: [Annotation] -> AnnEnv Source

extendAnnEnvList :: AnnEnv -> [Annotation] -> AnnEnv Source

plusAnnEnv :: AnnEnv -> AnnEnv -> AnnEnv Source

emptyAnnEnv :: AnnEnv Source

findAnns :: Typeable a => ([Word8] -> a) -> AnnEnv -> CoreAnnTarget -> [a]Source

Find the annotations attached to the given target as Typeable values of your choice. If no deserializer is specified, only transient annotations will be returned.

deserializeAnns :: Typeable a => ([Word8] -> a) -> AnnEnv -> UniqFM [a]Source

Deserialize all annotations of a given type. This happens lazily, that is no deserialization will take place until the [a] is actually demanded and the [a] can also be empty (the UniqFM is not filtered).
