haskell-extensible-exceptions in GHC *and* in [extra]
by Magnus Therning 23 Jan '11

23 Jan '11

Remy, Is there some particular reason for keeping a copy of extensible-exceptions in [extra]? extensibe-exceptions 0.1.1.1 is provided by GHC extensible-exceptions 0.1.1.2 is in [extra] Finally, haskell-platform 2010.2.0.0 specifies version 0.1.1.1. The only package which requires extensible-exceptions is haskell-terminfo, but according to its hackage page it has the dependency extensible-exceptions (>=0.1.1.0 & <0.2) So it would be satisfied by the version bundled with GHC. Given all this, couldn't we just remove the version of extensible-exceptions in [extra] (and rebuild haskell-terminfo)? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus(a)therning.org jabber: magnus(a)therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus

The culprit is mtl>2 (which I think is the transformers-based mtl). The mtl ships in [extra] is part of HP and is very unlikely to be updated before the next release of HP itself. --- If you no longer wish to receive notifications about this package, please go the the above package page and click the UnNotify button.

Cmdargs and common flags
by Magnus Therning 20 Jan '11

20 Jan '11

I'm looking for a good way of dealing with common flags in cmdargs. Currently what I do requires a bit of repetition that I'd really like to get rid of: 1. Data types data Modes = Cmd1 { foo :: String, ... } | Cmd2 { foo :: String, ... } 2. Mode specifications cmd1 = Cmd1 { foo = def &= help "..", ...} cmd2 = Cmd2 { foo = def &= help "..", ...} I have no idea how to deal with the repetition in the data types, so all suggestions are welcome. For the repetition in the mode specifications I attempted to factor the common bits into a "variable": flagFoo = "" &= help ".." but that resulted in only the first command getting the proper specification. I suppose this comes down to the impurity, but how do I work around that? (Especially, are there any good examples of using the pure part of the API?) /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: magnus(a)therning.org jabber: magnus(a)therning.org twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus
