Deriving instance Typeable with context
Might I suggest not doing that. Datatype contexts are bad in pretty much every way possible. There's a reason that they've been deprecated. If you really, really, want them, use GADTs. If you don't use contexts, this is trivial {-# LANGUAGE DeriveDataTypeable #-} import Data.Typeable import Data.Data data ErrorResponse ty...
Are all differentiable types Monads
haskell,monads,zipper,deriving
No. The void functor data V a is differentiable, but return cannot be implemented for it.
Opam install deriving, syntax error
It seems you forgot to provide deriving.syntax package. Use the following _tags file: true: syntax(camlp4o) true: package(deriving,deriving.syntax) true: thread,debug,annot true: bin_annot ...
Why does Either derives Show but Maybe does not?
haskell,show,maybe,either,deriving
The instance for Maybe is defined explicitly in GHC.Show, along with instances for a whole bunch of other common types like tuples. You can find out where an instance was defined using the :i command in ghci: Prelude> :i Maybe data Maybe a = Nothing | Just a -- Defined...
How to use deriving and batteries at same time in OCaml?
ocaml,deriving,ocaml-batteries
I've had no problem installing both libraries (batteries 2.1.0 and deriving 0.5) with OCaml 4.00.1 (and Opam 0.9.6) You might want to check this question: opam upgrade wants to downgrade a bunch of packages -- not sure whether this is relevant, but it seems that it might be. Good...
Custom deriving(Read,Show) for enum type
haskell,template-haskell,deriving
The paper Invertible Syntax Descriptions: Unifying Parsing and Pretty Printing describes one particularly idiomatic solution. Your example looks like this, using the invertible-syntax package based on that paper: import Prelude hiding (Applicative(..), print) import Data.Maybe (fromJust) import Text.Syntax import Text.Syntax.Parser.Naive import Text.Syntax.Printer.Naive data TVShow = BobsBurgers | MrRobot | BatmanTAS...
How can I automatically derive Typeable instance for DataKinds derived types?
haskell,types,deriving,data-kinds
Yes, you can use the AutoDeriveTypeable extension. For the other part, the closest thing I could think of was to put Typeable c => inside the GADT definition as follows: {-# LANGUAGE AutoDeriveTypeable #-} {-# LANGUAGE GADTs #-} {-# LANGUAGE DataKinds #-} import Data.Typeable import qualified Data.Map as M type...
Deriving Generic from data declared in another file fails
