-- | The strict state-transformer monad.
-- A computation of type @'ST' s a@ transforms an internal state indexed
-- by @s@, and returns a value of type @a@.
-- The @s@ parameter is either
--
-- * an uninstantiated type variable (inside invocations of 'runST'), or
--
-- * 'RealWorld' (inside invocations of 'Control.Monad.ST.stToIO').
--
-- It serves to keep the internal states of different invocations
-- of 'runST' separate from each other and from invocations of
-- 'Control.Monad.ST.stToIO'.
--
-- The '>>=' and '>>' operations are strict in the state (though not in
-- values stored in the state).  For example,
--
-- @'runST' (writeSTRef _|_ v >>= f) = _|_@

\end{code} Definition of runST ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ SLPJ 95/04: Why @runST@ must not have an unfolding; consider: \begin{verbatim} f x = runST ( \ s -> let (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] s (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s' in freezeArray# a s'' ) \end{verbatim} If we inline @runST@, we'll get: \begin{verbatim} f x = let (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] realWorld#{-NB-} (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s' in freezeArray# a s'' \end{verbatim} And now the @newArray#@ binding can be floated to become a CAF, which is totally and utterly wrong: \begin{verbatim} f = let (a, s') = newArray# 100 [] realWorld#{-NB-} -- YIKES!!! in \ x -> let (_, s'') = fill_in_array_or_something a x s' in freezeArray# a s'' \end{verbatim} All calls to @f@ will share a {\em single} array! End SLPJ 95/04. \begin{code}
{-# INLINE runST #-}
-- The INLINE prevents runSTRep getting inlined in *this* module
-- so that it is still visible when runST is inlined in an importing
-- module.  Regrettably delicate.  runST is behaving like a wrapper.

-- | Return the value computed by a state transformer computation.
-- The @forall@ ensures that the internal state used by the 'ST'
-- computation is inaccessible to the rest of the program.

-- I'm only letting runSTRep be inlined right at the end, in particular *after* full laziness
-- That's what the "INLINE [0]" says.
--              SLPJ Apr 99
-- {-# INLINE [0] runSTRep #-}

-- SDM: further to the above, inline phase 0 is run *before*
-- full-laziness at the moment, which means that the above comment is
-- invalid.  Inlining runSTRep doesn't make a huge amount of
-- difference, anyway.  Hence:
