[GHC] #12025: Order of constraints forced (in pattern synonyms, type classes in comments)

#12025: Order of constraints forced (in pattern synonyms, type classes in comments) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.1 (Type checker) | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple TypeApplications PatternSynonyms | Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: 11513, 10928 Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Ever since `TypeApplications` the order of quantification matters. It seems there are some places where the user has no control over the order: {{{#!hs data A a where X :: A [xxx] pattern X' :: forall t. () => forall xxx. t ~ [xxx] => A t pattern X' = X }}} This quantifies the universal `t` and the existential `xxx`.. but in this case `t` is constrained to equal `[xxx]` so when we supply our first type (the universal `t`) it is forced to be of the form `[a]`. Then the existential is forced to equal `a` (there is currently no way to express this without a type annotation `X' @[t] @t :: A [t]`, see ticket #11385 to allow `X' @[_t] @_t`, for this ticket the equality is inherent in `X` so it's no big deal). This means that the first argument really doesn't give any further information but it seems impossible to reorder the existential type before the universal. This either forces the user to supply a dummy type: {{{#!hs X' @_ @ActualType }}} or to write `[ActualType]` explicitly {{{#!hs X' @[ActualType] X' @[ActualType] @ActualType X' @[_] @ActualType }}} This may be a bigger inconvenience than it may seem: the return type can be more complicated `A (B (C a))` and it requires the user to look it up. `X' @_ @ActualType` feels like bad library design, especially as the number of existential variables grows and the user has to remember how many underscores to provide. See also ticket:10928#comment:5 Keep in mind that this usage will be common, since the more obvious (see ticket:10928#comment:16) {{{#!hs pattern X'' :: forall xxx. A [xxx] pattern X'' = X }}} cannot match against a type `A a` {{{#!hs -- Works foo :: A a -> ... foo X' = ... -- Doesn't bar :: A a -> ... bar X'' = ... }}} Thoughts? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12025> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #14212: Give better error message with non-supported Backpack/TH use

#14212: Give better error message with non-supported Backpack/TH use -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Template | Version: 8.2.1 Haskell | Keywords: backpack | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- This is something of a follow up to #13268. Suppose you have an indefinite package. If you use TemplateHaskell with a splice that was defined in the indefinite package itself, there is no reasonable way to expect this to work, since in general you can't have compiled the the imported module before you need to run the splice (and the splice needs to be run before you know how the holes are instantiated.) But say you try and do it anyway. GHC will give an error like this: {{{ ghc: ^^ Could not load 'qzm0zi1zminplacezmENEL5G3hx7IK2t0f6HloyH_A_f_closure', dependency unresolved. See top entry above. ByteCodeLink.lookupCE During interactive linking, GHCi couldn't find the following symbol: qzm0zi1zminplacezmENEL5G3hx7IK2t0f6HloyH_A_f_closure This may be due to you not asking GHCi to load extra object files, archives or DLLs needed by your current session. Restart GHCi, specifying the missing library using the -L/path/to/object/dir and -lmissinglibname flags, or simply by naming the relevant files on the GHCi command line. Alternatively, this link failure might indicate a bug in GHCi. If you suspect the latter, please send a bug report to: glasgow-haskell-bugs(a)haskell.org }}} This is not a good error message. A good error message would be to say that you can't use in a splice a function defined in an indefinite package (as per the current library.) -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14212> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

But in principle, Template Haskell code from other packages should be fair game. Alas, this not the case, because GHC attempts to dynamic link in libraries for ALL dependencies, including the ones we don't have code for. Quick fix should be to not link those in? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13268> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
