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 ann_target :: CoreAnnTarget The target of the annotation ann_value :: AnnPayload

Instances

Instances details

Outputable Annotation #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Types.Annotations Methods ppr :: Annotation -> SDoc Source #

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

Instances

Instances details

Functor AnnTarget #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Types.Annotations Methods fmap :: (a -> b) -> AnnTarget a -> AnnTarget b Source # (<$) :: a -> AnnTarget b -> AnnTarget a Source #
Binary name => Binary (AnnTarget name) #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Types.Annotations Methods put_ :: BinHandle -> AnnTarget name -> IO () Source # put :: BinHandle -> AnnTarget name -> IO (Bin (AnnTarget name)) Source # get :: BinHandle -> IO (AnnTarget name) Source #
Outputable name => Outputable (AnnTarget name) #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Types.Annotations Methods ppr :: AnnTarget name -> SDoc Source #

type CoreAnnTarget = AnnTarget Name Source #

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

AnnEnv for collecting and querying Annotations

data AnnEnv Source #

A collection of annotations

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 -> (ModuleEnv [a], NameEnv [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).
