someFunction :: TypeRep -> Int
Now that TypeRep
share their keys using RTS internal allocation, can we get a function in Data.Typeable
(or even GHC.Exts
) that retrieves the Int key? Currently my job code (OpenAFP) and Pugs both uses "show :: TypeRep -> String"
as the key for Map, but I think it'd be much, much faster if either TypeRep
supports Ord natively, or (preferably) that we can get a Int out of it.
Thanks! Audrey
