Closures

type Closure = GenClosure Box Source #

data GenClosure b Source #

This is the representation of a Haskell value on the heap. It reflects http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/browser/includes/rts/storage/Closures.h

The data type is parametrized by the type to store references in. Usually this is a Box with the type synonym Closure.

All Heap objects have the same basic layout. A header containing a pointer to the info table and a payload with various fields. The info field below always refers to the info table pointed to by the header. The remaining fields are the payload.

See https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary/Rts/Storage/HeapObjects for more information.

Constructors

Instances

Eq PrimType #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Exts.Heap.Closures Methods (==) :: PrimType -> PrimType -> Bool Source # (/=) :: PrimType -> PrimType -> Bool Source #
Show PrimType #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Exts.Heap.Closures Methods showsPrec :: Int -> PrimType -> ShowS Source # show :: PrimType -> String Source # showList :: [PrimType] -> ShowS Source #

allClosures :: GenClosure b -> [b] Source #

For generic code, this function returns all referenced closures.

Boxes

data Box Source #

An arbitrary Haskell value in a safe Box. The point is that even unevaluated thunks can safely be moved around inside the Box, and when required, e.g. in getBoxedClosureData, the function knows how far it has to evaluate the argument.

Constructors

Box Any

Instances

Show Box #
Instance details Defined in GHC.Exts.Heap.Closures Methods showsPrec :: Int -> Box -> ShowS Source # show :: Box -> String Source # showList :: [Box] -> ShowS Source #

areBoxesEqual :: Box -> Box -> IO Bool Source #

Boxes can be compared, but this is not pure, as different heap objects can, after garbage collection, become the same object.

asBox :: a -> Box Source #

This takes an arbitrary value and puts it into a box. Note that calls like

asBox (head list)

will put the thunk "head list" into the box, not the element at the head of the list. For that, use careful case expressions:

case list of x:_ -> asBox x
