Typeable SourcePos

sourceLine :: SourcePos -> Line

Extracts the line number from a source position.

sourceColumn :: SourcePos -> Column

Extracts the column number from a source position.

sourceName :: SourcePos -> SourceName

Extracts the name of the source from a source position.

incSourceLine :: SourcePos -> Line -> SourcePos

Increments the line number of a source position.

incSourceColumn :: SourcePos -> Column -> SourcePos

Increments the column number of a source position.

setSourceLine :: SourcePos -> Line -> SourcePos

Set the line number of a source position.

setSourceColumn :: SourcePos -> Column -> SourcePos

Set the column number of a source position.

setSourceName :: SourcePos -> SourceName -> SourcePos

Set the name of the source.

newPos :: SourceName -> Line -> Column -> SourcePos

Create a new SourcePos with the given source name, line number and column number.

initialPos :: SourceName -> SourcePos

Create a new SourcePos with the given source name, and line number and column number set to 1, the upper left.

updatePosChar :: SourcePos -> Char -> SourcePos

Update a source position given a character. If the character is a newline ('\n') or carriage return ('\r') the line number is incremented by 1. If the character is a tab ('t') the column number is incremented to the nearest 8'th column, ie. column + 8 - ((column-1) `mod` 8). In all other cases, the column is incremented by 1.

updatePosString :: SourcePos -> String -> SourcePos

The expression updatePosString pos s updates the source position pos by calling updatePosChar on every character in s, ie. foldl updatePosChar pos string.
