would give rise to infinite types, which in turn makes eqType diverge.
Similarly splitForAllTys and splitFunTys can get into a loop.
-Solution: for recursive newtypes use a coerce, and treat the newtype
-and its representation as distinct right through the compiler. That's
-what you get if you use recursive newtypes. (They are rare, so who
-cares if they are a tiny bit less efficient.)
+Solution:
+
+* Newtypes are always represented using NewTcApp, never as TyConApp.
-So: non-recursive newtypes are represented using a SourceTy (see below)
- recursive newtypes are represented using a TyConApp
+* For non-recursive newtypes, P, treat P just like a type synonym after
+ type-checking is done; i.e. it's opaque during type checking (functions
+ from TcType) but transparent afterwards (functions from Type).
+ "Treat P as a type synonym" means "all functions expand NewTcApps
+ on the fly".
-The TyCon still says "I'm a newtype", but we do not represent the
-newtype application as a SourceType; instead as a TyConApp.
+ Applications of the data constructor P simply vanish:
+ P x = x
+
+* For recursive newtypes Q, treat the Q and its representation as
+ distinct right through the compiler. Applications of the data consructor
+ use a coerce:
+ Q = \(x::Q->Q). coerce Q x
+ They are rare, so who cares if they are a tiny bit less efficient.
-NOTE: currently [March 02] we regard a newtype as 'recursive' if it's in a
-mutually recursive group. That's a bit conservative: only if there's a loop
-consisting only of newtypes do we need consider it as recursive. But it's
-not so easy to discover that, and the situation isn't that common.
+The typechecker (TcTyDecls) identifies enough type construtors as 'recursive'
+to cut all loops. The other members of the loop may be marked 'non-recursive'.

Source types
A type of the form
- SourceTy sty
-represents a value whose type is the Haskell source type sty.
+ PredTy p
+represents a value whose type is the Haskell predicate p,
+where a predicate is what occurs before the '=>' in a Haskell type.
It can be expanded into its representation, but:
* The type checker must treat it as opaque
* The rest of the compiler treats it as transparent
-There are two main uses
- a) Haskell predicates
- b) newtypes
-
Consider these examples:
f :: (Eq a) => a -> Int
g :: (?x :: Int -> Int) => a -> Int
Predicates are represented inside GHC by PredType:
\begin{code}
-data SourceType
+data PredType
= ClassP Class [Type] -- Class predicate
| IParam (IPName Name) Type -- Implicit parameter
- | NType TyCon [Type] -- A *saturated*, *non-recursive* newtype application
- -- [See notes at top about newtypes]
-type PredType = SourceType -- A subtype for predicates
type ThetaType = [PredType]
\end{code}
