#10598: DeriveAnyClass and GND don't work well together -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: osa1 | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I think we definitely have a bug here, but I'm not sure what it really is. Here's the program: {{{ newtype MyMaybe a = MyMaybe (Maybe a) deriving (Functor, Show) main = print $ MyMaybe $ Just (10 :: Int) }}} I'm using GHC 7.10.1. {{{ ➜ deriveany_bug ghc --make -fforce-recomp Test.hs -XDeriveAnyClass -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Test.hs, Test.o ) Test.hs:2:13: Can't make a derived instance of ‘Functor MyMaybe’ (even with cunning newtype deriving): You need DeriveFunctor to derive an instance for this class Try GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving for GHC's newtype-deriving extension In the newtype declaration for ‘MyMaybe’ }}} Just to try, changing argument order: {{{ ➜ deriveany_bug ghc --make -fforce-recomp Test.hs -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving -XDeriveAnyClass [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Test.hs, Test.o ) Test.hs:2:13: Can't make a derived instance of ‘Functor MyMaybe’ (even with cunning newtype deriving): You need DeriveFunctor to derive an instance for this class Try GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving for GHC's newtype-deriving extension In the newtype declaration for ‘MyMaybe’ }}} It works fine if I remove `DeriveAnyClass`: {{{ ➜ deriveany_bug ghc --make -fforce-recomp Test.hs -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( Test.hs, Test.o ) Linking Test ... }}} GHC HEAD is failing in exactly the same way. User manual is saying this in 7.5.6: > In case you try to derive some class on a newtype, and -XGeneralizedNewtypeDeriving is also on, -XDeriveAnyClass takes precedence. But then why is it telling me to enable `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving` in the error message? Even if I already enabled it? Also, maybe it could try `GND` when `DeriveAnyClass` fails? Because the doc is saying `DeriveAnyClass` has precedence but doesn't specify what happens if it fails. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10598> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

I wasn't sure if this deriving clause was going to work at all, or whether I would expect it to. Since `MyList` is a newtype wrapper around `[a]`, and we have the requisite instance {{{#!hs instance (Typeable a, SC (Serializable a)) => SC (Serializable [a]) }}} I was kind of hoping that `GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving` would work its magic. However, even if it cannot, the error message should probably change. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11509> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Should we require users to specify !ImpredicativeTypes here? Or, should the !GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving mechanism (which sometimes is impredicative) just assume the extension? 2. Can we improve the error message? I'd like to note that the original example really ''does'' require impredicativity -- the question is whether and how to bother the user with this technicality.

[GHC] #10447: DeriveFoldable rejects instances with constraints in last argument of data type

#10447: DeriveFoldable rejects instances with constraints in last argument of data type -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: RyanGlScott | Status: new Type: bug | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Keywords: | Type of failure: GHC rejects Architecture: | valid program Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: #8678 Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Currently, the {{{-XDeriveFoldable}}} extension will reject any derived {{{Foldable}}} instance for a data type where the last argument of the type constructor is constrained. For example, using this data type from [http://git.haskell.org/ghc.git/blob/9f968e97a0de9c2509da00f6337b612dd72a038… TcDeriv.hs] as inspiration: {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE DeriveFoldable, GADTs, StandaloneDeriving #-} module DeriveFoldableRejected where data T a b where T4 :: Ord b => b -> T a b T5 :: b -> T b b T6 :: T a (b,b) deriving instance Foldable (T a) }}} Compiling {{{DeriveFoldableRejected.hs}}} with GHC 7.10 will currently fail: {{{ DeriveFoldableRejected.hs:9:1: Can't make a derived instance of ‘Foldable (T a)’: Constructor ‘T4’ must be truly polymorphic in the last argument of the data type In the stand-alone deriving instance for ‘Foldable (T a)’ Failed, modules loaded: none. }}} I don't think this restriction needs to apply to {{{Foldable}}} instances. Unlike {{{Functor}}} and {{{Traversable}}} instances, which require the last argument to be truly universal, {{{Foldable}}} instances can get away without this. To demonstrate, here's a slightly modified {{{T}}} data type, without the constraints: {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE DeriveFoldable, GADTs, StandaloneDeriving #-} {-# OPTIONS_GHC -ddump-deriv #-} module DeriveFoldableLegal where data T a b where T45 :: b -> T a b T6 :: T a b deriving instance Foldable (T a) }}} The output of {{{-ddump-deriv}}} is: {{{ Derived instances: instance Data.Foldable.Foldable (DeriveFoldableRejected.T a_aDc) where Data.Foldable.foldr f_aDd z_aDe (DeriveFoldableRejected.T45 a1_aDf) = f_aDd a1_aDf z_aDe Data.Foldable.foldr f_aDg z_aDh DeriveFoldableRejected.T6 = z_aDh Data.Foldable.foldMap f_aDi (DeriveFoldableRejected.T45 a1_aDj) = f_aDi a1_aDj Data.Foldable.foldMap f_aDk DeriveFoldableRejected.T6 = GHC.Base.mempty }}} Copying this back into {{{DeriveFoldableRejected.hs}}} (after some cleanup): {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE DeriveFoldable, GADTs, StandaloneDeriving #-} module DeriveFoldableRejected where data T a b where T4 :: Ord b => b -> T a b T5 :: b -> T b b T6 :: T a (b,b) instance Foldable (T a) where foldr f z (T4 a) = f a z foldr f z (T5 a) = f a z foldr f z T6 = z foldMap f (T4 a) = f a foldMap f (T5 a) = f a foldMap f T6 = mempty }}} reveals that it will compile correctly with the generated code. Therefore, it seems like the check for universality in the last type argument shouldn't be used in {{{-XDeriveFoldable}}}. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10447> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
