Hi all, I'm having a weird problem where when I add the 'main' function to my program and load it into GHCI, whenever I check the type or try to run my other functions I get a 'Not in scope: <functionname>' error. When I remove the 'main' function and reload the code, the problem goes away.
I can't seem to reproduce this with a trivial example, but this has happened to me several times in my larger programs.
thanks ... deech
Odd. Does it happen with the module header module Main where , with an explicit export list, or without any module header? Is it so that with the main function, you load the compiled function, then when you get the Not in scope, you remove the main function and reload the module without compiling? Then it's probably the correct behaviour, cf. the user's guide, section 3.4.3. What's really in scope at the prompt?
