[Haskell] ANNOUNCE: JRegex library

JRegex is a library that provides interfaces to both PCRE (perl comptatable regular expressions) and Posix regular expressions. it also provides an operator (=~) which is similar, but much more powerful than the perl operator. In addition, the syntax uses extensible type classes so you may extend

[Haskell] Excessive sharing and GHC

Questions prompted by the "Excessive Sharing" section, page 405, of SPJ's "The Implementation of Functional Programming". This section gives 2 variations of a power list function, semantically equivalent, but with different space behaviours. Paraphrasing, given a caller of "length (powerListXX

RE: [Haskell] really undecidable instances?

This one can't. But it's hard to formulate a general rule. -fallow-undecidable-instances simply says that you, the programmer, take responsibility for termination. Without the flag, GHC uses a simple but sometimes over-conservative rule Simon | -Original Message- | From: [EMAIL PROTECTE

[Haskell] instance C (a -> a)

Lieber Herr Bachmann, instance-Deklarationen der Form instance C (a -> a) sind tatsächlich nicht konform zum Haskell-98-Standard, ebensowenig instance C (a,a) und dergleichen, was heißt, dass diese Einschränkung nichts mit dem Funktionstyp zu tun hat. Generell darf ein und die

[Haskell] really undecidable instances?

Hello, what ist the problem with instance declarations like the following: instance C Int a => D Char [a] Why are such declarations only allowed with -fallow-undecidable-instances in GHC? How can they result in undecidability? Best wishes, Wolfgang

[Haskell] multiple occurence of the same type variable in instance head

Hello, the following is not Haskell 98: class C a instance C (a,a) Well, GHC allows this with the -fglasgow-exts flag. Surprisingly, I cannot find a section in the GHC User's Guide which states that -fglasgow-exts can be used to allow this kind of instance declarations. Well
