./wip/hs-deepseq, Deep evaluation of data structures

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]

Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.2.0.1, Package name: hs-deepseq-1.2.0.1, Maintainer: pho

This package provides methods for fully evaluating data structures
("deep evaluation"). Deep evaluation is often used for adding
strictness to a program, e.g. in order to force pending exceptions,
remove space leaks, or force lazy I/O to happen. It is also useful in
parallel programs, to ensure pending work does not migrate to the
wrong thread.

The primary use of this package is via the deepseq function, a "deep"
version of seq. It is implemented on top of an NFData typeclass
("Normal Form Data", data structures with no unevaluated components)
which defines strategies for fully evaluating different data types.
