ghc-7.0.4: The GHC API

Outputable

Contents

Description

This module defines classes and functions for pretty-printing. It also exports a number of helpful debugging and other utilities such as trace and panic.

The interface to this module is very similar to the standard Hughes-PJ pretty printing module, except that it exports a number of additional functions that are rarely used, and works over the SDoc type.

class Outputable a => OutputableBndr a whereSource

When we print a binder, we often want to print its type too. The OutputableBndr class encapsulates this idea.

Methods

pprBndr :: BindingSite -> a -> SDocSource

Pretty printing combinators

interppSP :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDocSource

Returns the seperated concatenation of the pretty printed things.

interpp'SP :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDocSource

Returns the comma-seperated concatenation of the pretty printed things.

pprQuotedList :: Outputable a => [a] -> SDocSource

Returns the comma-seperated concatenation of the quoted pretty printed things.

 [x,y,z]  ==>  `x', `y', `z'

pprWithCommasSource

Arguments

:: (a -> SDoc)

The pretty printing function to use

-> [a]

The things to be pretty printed

-> SDoc

SDoc where the things have been pretty printed, comma-separated and finally packed into a paragraph.

nest :: Int -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Indent SDoc some specified amount

(<>) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Join two SDoc together horizontally without a gap

(<+>) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Join two SDoc together horizontally with a gap between them

hcat :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

Concatenate SDoc horizontally

hsep :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

Concatenate SDoc horizontally with a space between each one

($$) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Join two SDoc together vertically; if there is no vertical overlap it dovetails the two onto one line

($+$) :: SDoc -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Join two SDoc together vertically

vcat :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

Concatenate SDoc vertically with dovetailing

sep :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

Separate: is either like hsep or like vcat, depending on what fits

cat :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

Catenate: is either like hcat or like vcat, depending on what fits

fsep :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

A paragraph-fill combinator. It's much like sep, only it keeps fitting things on one line until it can't fit any more.

fcat :: [SDoc] -> SDocSource

This behaves like fsep, but it uses <> for horizontal conposition rather than <+>

hangSource

Arguments

:: SDoc

The header

-> Int

Amount to indent the hung body

-> SDoc

The hung body, indented and placed below the header

-> SDoc 

punctuateSource

Arguments

:: SDoc

The punctuation

-> [SDoc]

The list that will have punctuation added between every adjacent pair of elements

-> [SDoc]

Punctuated list

speakNth :: Int -> SDocSource

Converts an integer to a verbal index:

 speakNth 1 = text "first"
 speakNth 5 = text "fifth"
 speakNth 21 = text "21st"

speakNTimes :: Int -> SDocSource

Converts a strictly positive integer into a number of times:

 speakNTimes 1 = text "once"
 speakNTimes 2 = text "twice"
 speakNTimes 4 = text "4 times"

speakN :: Int -> SDocSource

Converts an integer to a verbal multiplicity:

 speakN 0 = text "none"
 speakN 5 = text "five"
 speakN 10 = text "10"

speakNOf :: Int -> SDoc -> SDocSource

Converts an integer and object description to a statement about the multiplicity of those objects:

 speakNOf 0 (text "melon") = text "no melons"
 speakNOf 1 (text "melon") = text "one melon"
 speakNOf 3 (text "melon") = text "three melons"

plural :: [a] -> SDocSource

Determines the pluralisation suffix appropriate for the length of a list:

 plural [] = char 's'
 plural ["Hello"] = empty
 plural ["Hello", "World"] = char 's'

Converting SDoc into strings and outputing it

pprHsChar :: Char -> SDocSource

Special combinator for showing character literals.

pprHsString :: FastString -> SDocSource

Special combinator for showing string literals.

pprHsInfix :: Outputable name => name -> SDocSource

pprHsVar :: Outputable name => name -> SDocSource

Controlling the style in which output is printed

data BindingSite Source

BindingSite is used to tell the thing that prints binder what language construct is binding the identifier. This can be used to decide how much info to print.

Error handling and debugging utilities

pprPanic :: String -> SDoc -> aSource

Throw an exception saying bug in GHC

pprSorry :: String -> SDoc -> aSource

Throw an exceptio saying this isn't finished yet

assertPprPanic :: String -> Int -> SDoc -> aSource

Panic with an assertation failure, recording the given file and line number. Should typically be accessed with the ASSERT family of macros

pprPanicFastInt :: String -> SDoc -> FastIntSource

Specialization of pprPanic that can be safely used with FastInt

pprPgmError :: String -> SDoc -> aSource

Throw an exception saying bug in pgm being compiled (used for unusual program errors)

pprTrace :: String -> SDoc -> a -> aSource

If debug output is on, show some SDoc on the screen

warnPprTrace :: Bool -> String -> Int -> SDoc -> a -> aSource

Just warn about an assertion failure, recording the given file and line number. Should typically be accessed with the WARN macros

trace :: String -> a -> aSource

When called, trace outputs the string in its first argument, before returning the second argument as its result. The trace function is not referentially transparent, and should only be used for debugging, or for monitoring execution. Some implementations of trace may decorate the string that's output to indicate that you're tracing. The function is implemented on top of putTraceMsg.

sorry :: String -> aSource

Panics and asserts.

panicFastInt :: String -> FastIntSource

Panic while pretending to return an unboxed int. You can't use the regular panic functions in expressions producing unboxed ints because they have the wrong kind.

assertPanic :: String -> Int -> aSource

Throw an failed assertion exception for a given filename and line number.
