This package provides a GHC.Generics-based
Control.DeepSeq.Generics.genericRnf function which can be used
for providing a rnf implementation. See the documentation for
the genericRnf function in the Control.DeepSeq.Generics module
to get started.
The original idea was pioneered in the generic-deepseq package
(see http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/haskell-cafe/2012-February/099551.html
for more information).
This package differs from the generic-deepseq package by working
in combination with the existing deepseq package as opposed to
defining a conflicting drop-in replacement for deepseq's
Control.Deepseq module.
Note: The ability to auto-derive via GHC.Generics has been
merged into deepseq-1.4.0.0. This package is now still useful
for writing code that's also compatible with older deepseq
versions not yet providing GHC.Generics-support.
