GHC.OverloadedLabels
Description
This module defines the IsLabel
class is used by the OverloadedLabels extension. See the wiki page for more details.
The key idea is that when GHC sees an occurrence of the new overloaded label syntax #foo
, it is replaced with
fromLabel (proxy# :: Proxy# "foo") :: alpha
plus a wanted constraint IsLabel "foo" alpha
.
