- <longdescription>
- Provides Template Haskell functions that mimic deriving
- extensions that were introduced or modified in recent versions
- of GHC. Currently, the following extensions are covered:
-
- * @DeriveFoldable@
-
- * @DeriveFunctor@
-
- * @DeriveTraversable@
-
- The following changes have been backported:
-
- * In GHC 8.0, @DeriveFoldable@ was changed to allow folding
- over data types with existential constraints.
-
- * In GHC 8.0, @DeriveFoldable@ and @DeriveTraversable@ were
- changed so as not to generate superfluous @mempty@ or @pure@
- expressions in generated code. As a result, this allows
- deriving @Traversable@ instances for datatypes with unlifted
- argument types.
-
- * In GHC 8.0, deriving @Show@ was changed so that constructor fields
- with unlifted types are no longer shown with parentheses, and
- the output of showing an unlifted type is suffixed with the same
- number of hash signs as the corresponding primitive literals.
-
- * In GHC 8.2, deriving `Ord` was changed so that it generates concrete
- @if@-expressions that are not subject to @RebindableSyntax@.
-
- Note that some recent GHC extensions are not covered by this package:
-
- * @DeriveGeneric@, which was introducted in GHC 7.2 for deriving
- @Generic@ instances, and modified in GHC 7.6 to allow derivation
- of @Generic1@ instances. Use @Generics.Deriving.TH@ from
- @&lt;http://hackage.haskell.org/package/generic-deriving generic-deriving&gt;@
- to derive @Generic(1)@ using Template Haskell.
-
- * @DeriveLift@, which was introduced in GHC 8.0 for deriving
- @Lift@ instances. Use @Language.Haskell.TH.Lift@ from
- @&lt;http://hackage.haskell.org/package/th-lift th-lift&gt;@
- to derive @Lift@ using Template Haskell.
