Hi Alex, Do you have a concrete example? With the -dcore-lint flag, the Core is checked, including all the roles. Thanks, Richard On Aug 16, 2015, at 7:47 AM, Alexander Eyers-Taylor <aeyerstaylor11@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello
I have noticed in looking at some core that GADT type constructors are often applied with a representational role. These constructors are explicitly marked as nominal.
Is this information just ignored at a Core level or is this invalid core?
Looking at the code a see that we if we downgrade a TyConAppCo we unconditionally change it to a representational role after changing its children. I think this is where it is introduced.
