Subject: Making a polymorphic type non-polymorphic to comply with original signature
Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 10:59:46 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4975AEA2.6050901@inescporto.pt> (raw)
Hello,
I have the following definition:
module rec H :
sig
type 'a node =
| Node of 'a node J.t
| Leaf of 'a
type 'a t = 'a node
val equal : 'a t -> 'a t -> bool
val hash : 'a t -> int
end =
struct
type 'a node =
| Node of 'a node J.t
| Leaf of 'a
type 'a t = 'a node
let equa = (==)
let hash = Hashtbl.hash
end
and J : Hashtbl.S with type 'a key = 'a H.node = Hashtbl.Make( H )
;;
The data type 'a node is polymorphic. It is also a key used by the
hash-table. Note that H now does not comply with Hashtbl.HashedType
(because Hashtbl.HashedType is not polymorphic). By adding the
constraint "with type" also does not help.
Is it possible to make H comply with Hashtbl.HashedType i.e: make
J.Key = 'a H.node ?
TIA,
Hugo F.
