Hi Alexander,

this does the trick!

Well you can do

deriving instance Typeable LocalType

etc. if you enable the DeriveDataTypeable and StandaloneDeriving
extensions. You will get other error messages for missing instances;
just keep adding

deriving instance Typeable Day

etc. Eventually, you will need to implement an instance by hand for
Pico, because Pico's data constructors are not exported from
Data.Fixed. I'm not very familiar with Data and Typeable so I can't
help you there, but you can probably look at some existing instances
for help.

Hope that's useful for you.

Hi Alexander,


well I have this:

newtype AdmissionDate = AdmDt LocalTime
       deriving (Data,Typeable ..)

at least that's where I wonna get.

I don't know how to create the proper instance declarations though for
LocalTime.

AdmissionDate is an element of a larger data structure, this data structure
for instance also has a

newtype DischargeDate = DchrgDt LocalTime
       deriving (Data,Typeable ...)

With my haskell work so far I was blessedly free of the need for deriving..
Until now ...

Hi Sterling,

sry, but I can't get it to work.

You shouldn't need any extra tools for this. A combination of the
StandaloneDeriving and DeriveDataTypeable extensions in GHC should
suffice.

Cheers,

  Hi,

  I need to derive Data, Typeable for Data.Time.LocalTime. I had hoped
  to use either derive or DrIFT to generate the instance declarations
  for it.

  I tried to understand the respective user manuals but it's still all
  Greek to me.

  Someone please help!
