I would rather argue that: - Template Haskell approx. *compile-time* reflection - Scrap your boilerplate II (ICFP 2004) approx. *run-time* reflection - Generic Haskell is effectively a Haskell generator
I think, Generic Haskell is a Haskell generator in the sense that it's currently implemented like that, i.e., as a preprocessing compiler. I assume that's what you mean by 'effectively'. Conceptually, it's a Haskell extension: indeed, one that gives you a certain form of reflection capabilities.
