Haskell: Show all items that are "indicative" in the Hlist
Your code does not do what you expect from it. Long before dynamic behavior Data.Dynamicfires, the Haskell type validator resolves types. Type of the right part of the expression
mapMaybe fromDynamic $ [toDyn "one", toDyn (\x -> x::Integer), toDyn 3, toDyn ()] :: Typeable b => [b]
and the type of the left side is
map show :: Show a => [a] -> [String]
to combine them, a type variable brespectively. aunites. If you are going to compile this from a regular Haskell file, the compiler will give you a warning ( The type variable `a' is ambigous). But in GHCi, the interpreter simply matters by default ().
