Documentation
A unit identifier identifies a (possibly instantiated) package/component that can be installed the installed package database. There are several types of components that can be installed:
- A traditional library with no holes, so that
unitIdHash
isNothing
. In the absence of Backpack,UnitId
is the same as aComponentId
. - An indefinite, Backpack library with holes. In this case,
unitIdHash
is stillNothing
, but in the install, there are only interfaces, no compiled objects. - An instantiated Backpack library with all the holes
filled in.
unitIdHash
is aJust
a hash of the instantiating mapping.
A unit is a component plus the additional information on how the
holes are filled in. Thus there is a one to many relationship: for a
particular component there are many different ways of filling in the
holes, and each different combination is a unit (and has a separate
UnitId
).
UnitId
is distinct from OpenUnitId
, in that it is always
installed, whereas OpenUnitId
are intermediate unit identities
that arise during mixin linking, and don't necessarily correspond
to any actually installed unit. Since the mapping is not actually
recorded in a UnitId
, you can't actually substitute over them
(but you can substitute over OpenUnitId
). See also
Distribution.Backpack.FullUnitId for a mechanism for expanding an
instantiated UnitId
to retrieve its mapping.
Backwards compatibility note: if you need to get the string
representation of a UnitId to pass, e.g., as a -package-id
flag, use the display
function, which will work on all
versions of Cabal.

unUnitId :: UnitId -> String Source #
If you need backwards compatibility, consider using display
instead, which is supported by all versions of Cabal.
A UnitId
for a definite package. The DefUnitId
invariant says
that a UnitId
identified this way is definite; i.e., it has no
unfilled holes.
Instances
unsafeMkDefUnitId :: UnitId -> DefUnitId Source #
unDefUnitId :: DefUnitId -> UnitId Source #
newSimpleUnitId :: ComponentId -> UnitId Source #
Create a unit identity with no associated hash directly
from a ComponentId
.
mkLegacyUnitId :: PackageId -> UnitId Source #
Make an old-style UnitId from a package identifier. Assumed to be for the public library
getHSLibraryName :: UnitId -> String Source #
Returns library name prefixed with HS, suitable for filenames
type InstalledPackageId = UnitId Source #
Deprecated: Use UnitId instead. This symbol will be removed in Cabal-3.0 (est. Oct 2018).
