Synopsis

Main Annotation data types

data Annotation Source #

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

Constructors

Annotation 

Fields

Instances

Instances details
Outputable Annotation #

Defined in Annotations

type AnnPayload Source #

Arguments

 = Serialized

The "payload" of an annotation allows recovery of its value at a given type, and can be persisted to an interface file

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

Instance details

Defined in Annotations

Methods

put_ :: BinHandle -> AnnTarget name -> IO () Source #

put :: BinHandle -> AnnTarget name -> IO (Bin (AnnTarget name)) Source #

get :: BinHandle -> IO (AnnTarget name) Source #

type CoreAnnTarget = AnnTarget Name Source #

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

getAnnTargetName_maybe :: AnnTarget name -> Maybe name Source #

Get the name of an annotation target if it exists.

AnnEnv for collecting and querying Annotations

data AnnEnv Source #

A collection of annotations Can't use a type synonym or we hit bug #2412 due to source import

mkAnnEnv :: [Annotation] -> AnnEnv Source #

Construct a new annotation environment that contains the list of annotations provided.

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

Add the given annotation to the environment.

plusAnnEnv :: AnnEnv -> AnnEnv -> AnnEnv Source #

Union two annotation environments.

emptyAnnEnv :: AnnEnv Source #

An empty annotation environment.

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.

findAnnsByTypeRep :: AnnEnv -> CoreAnnTarget -> TypeRep -> [[Word8]] 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).
