Changelog of @hackage/bifunctors 5.6.2

5.6.2 [2024.03.19]

• Support building with template-haskell-2.22.* (GHC 9.10).

5.6.1 [2023.03.13]

• Provide instances for the Swap and Assoc type classes from the assoc package. (These instances were previously defined in assoc itself, but they have been migrated over to bifunctors in tandem with the assoc-1.1 release.)
• Only depend on bifunctor-classes-compat if building with GHC 8.0.

5.6 [2023.03.12]

• Drop support for GHC 7.10 and earlier.

• Move the Data.Bifunctor, Data.Bifoldable, and Data.Bitraversable compatibility modules to the new bifunctor-classes-compat package. For backwards compatibility, the bifunctors library re-exports Data.Bifoldable and Data.Bitraversable modules from bifunctor-classes-compat when building with GHC 8.0.

  If your library depends on bifunctors and compiles with pre-8.2 versions of GHC, be warned that it may be possible to construct a build plan involving a pre-5.6 version of bifunctors where:

  • Some of the Bifunctor instances come from bifunctor-classes-compat's compatibility classes, and
  • Other Bifunctor instances come from bifunctors's compatibility classes.

  These compatibility classes are distinct, so this could lead to build errors under certain conditions. Some possible ways to mitigate this risk include:

  • Drop support for GHC 8.0 and older in your library.

  • Require bifunctors >= 5.6 in your library.

  • If neither of the options above are viable, then you can temporarily define instances for the old compatibility classes from bifunctors like so:

    -- For Bifunctor instances
    import qualified "bifunctor-classes-compat" Data.Bifunctor as BifunctorCompat
    #if !MIN_VERSION_bifunctors(5,6,0) && !MIN_VERSION_base(4,8,0)
    import qualified "bifunctors" Data.Bifunctor as Bifunctor
    #endif
    
    instance BifunctorCompat.Bifunctor MyType where ...
    
    #if !MIN_VERSION_bifunctors(5,6,0) && !MIN_VERSION_base(4,8,0)
    instance Bifunctor.Bifunctor MyType where ...
    #endif
    

    -- For Bifoldable and Bitraversable instances
    import qualified "bifunctor-classes-compat" Data.Bifoldable as BifoldableCompat
    import qualified "bifunctor-classes-compat" Data.Bitraversable as BitraversableCompat
    #if !MIN_VERSION_bifunctors(5,6,0) && !MIN_VERSION_base(4,10,0)
    import qualified "bifunctors" Data.Bifoldable as Bifoldable
    import qualified "bifunctors" Data.Bitraversable as Bitraversable
    #endif
    
    instance BifoldableCompat.Bifoldable MyType where ...
    instance BitraversableCompat.Bitraversable MyType where ...
    
    #if !MIN_VERSION_bifunctors(5,6,0) && !MIN_VERSION_base(4,10,0)
    instance Bifoldable.Bifoldable MyType where ...
    instance Bitraversable.Bitraversable MyType where ...
    #endif
    

  If your package does nothing but define instances of Bifunctor et al., you may consider replacing your bifunctors dependency with bifunctor-classes-compat to reduce your dependency footprint. If you do, it is strongly recommended that you bump your package's major version number so that your users are alerted to the details of the migration.

• Define a Foldable1 instance for Joker, and define Bifoldable1 instances for Biff, Clown, Flip, Join, Joker, Product, Tannen, and WrappedBifunctor. These instances were originally defined in the semigroupoids library, and they have now been migrated to bifunctors as a side effect of adapting to this Core Libraries Proposal, which adds Foldable1 and Bifoldable1 to base.

5.5.15 [2023.02.27]

• Support th-abstraction-0.5.*.

5.5.14 [2022.12.07]

• Define Functor, Foldable, and Traversable instances for Sum and Product.

5.5.13 [2022.09.12]

• Make the Biapplicative instances for tuples lazy, to match their Bifunctor instances.

5.5.12 [2022.05.07]

• Backport an upstream GHC change which removes the default implementation of bitraverse. Per the discussion in https://github.com/haskell/core-libraries-committee/issues/47, this default implementation was completely broken, as attempting to use it would always result in an infinite loop.

5.5.11 [2021.04.30]

• Allow building with template-haskell-2.18 (GHC 9.2).

5.5.10 [2021.01.21]

• Fix a bug in which deriveBifoldable could generate code that triggers -Wunused-matches warnings.

5.5.9 [2020.12.30]

• Explicitly mark modules as Safe or Trustworthy.

5.5.8 [2020.10.01]

• Fix a bug in which deriveBifunctor would fail on sufficiently complex uses of rank-n types in constructor fields.
• Fix a bug in which deriveBiunctor and related functions would needlessly reject data types whose two last type parameters appear as oversaturated arguments to a type family.

5.5.7 [2020.01.29]

• Add Data.Bifunctor.Biap.

5.5.6 [2019.11.26]

• Add Category, Arrow, ArrowChoice, ArrowLoop, ArrowZero, and ArrowPlus instances for Data.Bifunctor.Product.

5.5.5 [2019.08.27]

• Add Eq{1,2}, Ord{1,2}, Read{1,2}, and Show{1,2} instances for data types in the Data.Bifunctor.* module namespace where possible. The operative phrase is "where possible" since many of these instances require the use of Eq2/Ord2/Read2/Show2, which are not available when built against transformers-0.4.*.

5.5.4 [2019.04.26]

• Support th-abstraction-0.3 or later.
• Don't incur a semigroup dependency on recent GHCs.

5.5.3 [2018.07.04]

• Make biliftA2 a class method of Biapplicative.
• Add the traverseBia, sequenceBia, and traverseBiaWith functions for traversing a Traversable container in a Biapplicative.
• Avoid incurring some dependencies when using recent GHCs.

5.5.2 [2018.02.06]

• Don't enable Safe on GHC 7.2.

5.5.1 [2018.02.04]

• Test suite fixes for GHC 8.4.

5.5 [2017.12.07]

• Data.Bifunctor.TH now derives bimap/bitraverse implementations for empty data types that are strict in the argument.
• Data.Bifunctor.TH no longer derives bifoldr/bifoldMap implementations that error on empty data types. Instead, they simply return the folded state (for bifoldr) or mempty (for bifoldMap).
• When using Data.Bifunctor.TH to derive Bifunctor or Bitraversable instances for data types where the last two type variables are at phantom roles, generated bimap/bitraverse implementations now use coerce for efficiency.
• Add Options to Data.Bifunctor.TH, along with variants of existing functions that take Options as an argument. For now, the only configurable option is whether derived instances for empty data types should use the EmptyCase extension (this is disabled by default).

5.4.2

• Make deriveBitraversable use liftA2 in derived implementations of bitraverse when possible, now that liftA2 is a class method of Applicative (as of GHC 8.2)
• Backport slightly more efficient implementations of bimapDefault and bifoldMapDefault

5.4.1

• Add explicit Safe, Trustworthy, and Unsafe annotations. In particular, annotate the Data.Bifoldable module as Trustworthy (previously, it was inferred to be Unsafe).

5.4

• Only export Data.Bifoldable and Data.Bitraversable when building on GHC < 8.1, otherwise they come from base
• Allow TH derivation of Bifunctor and Bifoldable instances for datatypes containing unboxed tuple types

5.3

• Added bifoldr1, bifoldl1, bimsum, biasum, binull, bilength, bielem, bimaximum, biminimum, bisum, biproduct, biand, bior, bimaximumBy, biminimumBy, binotElem, and bifind to Data.Bifoldable
• Added Bifunctor, Bifoldable, and Bitraversable instances for GHC.Generics.K1
• TH code no longer generates superfluous mempty or pure subexpressions in derived Bifoldable or Bitraversable instances, respectively

5.2.1

• Added Bifoldable and Bitraversable instances for Constant from transformers
• Data.Bifunctor.TH now compiles warning-free on GHC 8.0

5.2

• Added several Arrow-like instances for Tannen so we can use it as the Cayley construction if needed.
• Added Data.Bifunctor.Sum
• Added BifunctorFunctor, BifunctorMonad and BifunctorComonad.
• Backported Bifunctor Constant instance from transformers

5.1

• Added Data.Bifunctor.Fix
• Added Data.Bifunctor.TH, which permits TemplateHaskell-based deriving of Bifunctor, Bifoldable and Bitraversable instances.
• Simplified Bitraversable.

5

• Fixed a typo.

4.2

• Bumped dependency on tagged, which is required to build cleanly on GHC 7.9+
