I have been attempting to translate something I did using UUAG into monadic code. It involved inherited, synthesized, and chained attributes. It has been said that such attributes correspond to the Reader, Writer, and State monads, respectively [1]. The former and latter are straightforward, but I'm somehow missing the correlation between the Writer monad and synthesized attributes. I couldn't figure out the appropriate combination of tell/listen/pass/censor to do what I was doing with a synthesized Map. I eventually gave up and passed the synthesized values along with the monadic result. Has anybody done this before?
