I've been using Data.Dynamic but the Typeable requirement doesn't go well with FFI declarations (which don't accept type contexts).
Can you be a little more specific?
mt2mgt :: MyType a b -> MyGenType mt2mgt = MyGenType.myToDyn mgt2mt :: MyGentype -> MyType a b mgt2mt (MyGenType dyn) = myfromDyn dyn The question is, ¿if only mt2mgt and mgt2mt are used by the user, would the use of unsafeCoerce be dangerous?
mgt2mt . mt2mgt :: MyType a b -> MyType c d Yes, it's dangerous. The reason Dynamic requires Typeable is to be able to check that you're casting Dynamic back to the original type. -- Taral <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "You can't prove anything." -- Gödel's Incompetence Theorem _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
