I was thinking more along type classes....and then I was going to throw some spanners in the works....

Of course it depends what's inside the braces, and what you want to do with it, but I'd be inclined to do something like this: 1) data IX a = IX { constructor :: Int -> a, ... } 2) data IX a b = IX { constructor :: Int -> b, func :: a -> b, ... } 3) data IX a b = IX { iy :: IY a, ... } 4) data IX a b = IX { iz :: IZ b, iy :: IY a, ... } Can you specify more clearly what the goal of the conversion is? If you want "OO" style behavior the thing that is most important is existential quantification. -- ryan On 1/2/08, Nicholls, Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I'm trying to translate some standard C# constucts into Haskell... some of this seems easy.... Specifically 1) Interface IX { } 2) Interface IX<A> { } 3) Interface IX<A> Where A : IY { } 4) Interface IX<A> : IZ Where A : IY { } I can take a punt at the first 2....but then it all falls apart _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
