1. data FormatParse

   base	Text.Printf

   The "format parser" walks over argument-type-specific modifier characters to find the primary format character. This is the type of its result.

2. FormatParse :: String -> Char -> String -> FormatParse

   base	Text.Printf

   No documentation available.

3. data FormatSign

   base	Text.Printf

   How to handle the sign of a numeric field. These are mutually exclusive, with SignPlus taking precedence.

4. ForceSpecConstr :: SpecConstrAnnotation

   base	GHC.Exts

   No documentation available.

5. module GHC.Foreign

   Foreign marshalling support for CStrings with configurable encodings

6. module GHC.ForeignPtr

   GHC's implementation of the ForeignPtr data type.

7. data ForeignPtr a

   base	GHC.ForeignPtr

   The type ForeignPtr represents references to objects that are maintained in a foreign language, i.e., that are not part of the data structures usually managed by the Haskell storage manager. The essential difference between ForeignPtrs and vanilla memory references of type Ptr a is that the former may be associated with finalizers. A finalizer is a routine that is invoked when the Haskell storage manager detects that - within the Haskell heap and stack - there are no more references left that are pointing to the ForeignPtr. Typically, the finalizer will, then, invoke routines in the foreign language that free the resources bound by the foreign object. The ForeignPtr is parameterised in the same way as Ptr. The type argument of ForeignPtr should normally be an instance of class Storable.

8. ForeignPtr :: Addr# -> ForeignPtrContents -> ForeignPtr a

   base	GHC.ForeignPtr

   No documentation available.

9. data ForeignPtrContents

   base	GHC.ForeignPtr

   Controls finalization of a ForeignPtr, that is, what should happen if the ForeignPtr becomes unreachable. Visually, these data constructors are appropriate in these scenarios:

   Memory backing pointer is
   GC-Managed   Unmanaged
   Finalizer functions are: +------------+-----------------+
   Allowed  | MallocPtr  | PlainForeignPtr |
   +------------+-----------------+
   Prohibited  | PlainPtr   | FinalPtr        |
   +------------+-----------------+
   

10. Format :: GeneralCategory

    base	GHC.Unicode
