Already gone in deepseq-1.1.0.0, which also renamed DeepSeq back to NFData. Cheers, Simon ___ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe

Re: [Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: deepseq-1.0.0.0
Hello, The release of the regular library for generic programming on Hackage [1] also contains a form of deep seq [2]. This means that you don't even have to write the definition of 'deepseq', you can just use 'gdseq' (assuming you have used Template Haskell to derive the generic representations for your types). Cheers, Pedro [1] http://hackage.haskell.org/package/regular [2] http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/regular/0.2.1/doc/html/Generics-Regular-Functions-Seq.html#t%3ASeq On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 12:04, Roel van Dijk vandijk.r...@gmail.com wrote: On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 12:00 PM, Simon Marlow marlo...@gmail.com wrote: I've just uploaded deepseq-1.0.0.0 to Hackage This is great!
