Class Const<A,B>

java.lang.Object
com.jnape.palatable.lambda.functor.builtin.Const<A,B>
Type Parameters:
A - the left parameter type, and the type of the stored value
B - the right (phantom) parameter type
All Implemented Interfaces:
Applicative<B,Const<A,?>>, Bifunctor<A,B,Const<?,?>>, BoundedBifunctor<A,B,Object,Object,Const<?,?>>, Functor<B,Const<A,?>>, Monad<B,Const<A,?>>, MonadRec<B,Const<A,?>>, Traversable<B,Const<A,?>>

public final class Const<A,B> extends Object implements MonadRec<B,Const<A,?>>, Bifunctor<A,B,Const<?,?>>, Traversable<B,Const<A,?>>
A (surprisingly useful) functor over some phantom type B, retaining a value of type A that can be retrieved later. This is useful in situations where it is desirable to retain constant information throughout arbitrary functor transformations, such that at the end of the chain, regardless of how B has been altered, A is still pristine and retrievable.
