#11483: Ghci integration with readline -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Ivan | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 7.10.3 Keywords: readline | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple complete | Architecture: x86_64 | Type of failure: None/Unknown (amd64) | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When running ghci, the word "import" is not in the list generated by readline completion. Namely, if to type {{{#!hs > i }}} the suggestions that appear after pressing <TAB> are {{{#!hs id isDenormalized isNegativeZero init isIEEE iterate interact isInfinite ioError isNaN }}} If to type {{{#!hs > im }}} then pressing <TAB> gives beep. Also, if we have at prompt {{{#!hs > import q }}} pressing <TAB> does not produce any completion. I would expect to get {{{#!hs > import qualified }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11483> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

[GHC] #11418: Suggest correct spelling when module is not found because of typo

#11418: Suggest correct spelling when module is not found because of typo -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: syd | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: lowest | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Given these two modules: Aaa.hs: {{{#!hs module Aaa where import BBb main :: IO () main = putStrLn myString }}} Bbb.hs: {{{#!hs module Bbb where myString :: String myString = "hi" }}} There's a typo in `Aaa.hs`, the import should be `Bbb` instead of `BBb`. Running `runhaskell Aaa.hs` results in this error: {{{ Aaa.hs:3:18: Could not find module ‘BBb’ Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. }}} The request is to have the compiler suggest that this is a typo and that it should be `Bbb` instead. It already does this for misspelled functions, if I recall correctly. Because the compiler will not continue when finding an error like this, it won't be harmful to spend a little extra time looking for possible misspellings. How typo's should be recognized is something that should be fleshed out later. For example, a hamming distance of 2 or less could indicate a typo. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11418> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9637: Type level programming needs an error function -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: augustss | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Blocked By: | None/Unknown Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When doing type level programming you often need a way to report errors. I suggest a closed type family called Error with special semantics. It is kinded like this Error :: Symbol -> k1 -> k2 If this function has to be reduced during constraint solving it will simply generate a type error with the given string and printing the type as extra information (this kind can be generalized a lot if we want to). I've found that having this function gives more accurate and earlier error messages. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9637> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#11582: Redundant constraints warning complains that (a ~ b) is redundant -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1-rc2 (Type checker) | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Incorrect Unknown/Multiple | warning at compile-time Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Lemming came up with an interesting example where the redundant constraints warning is arguable a bit too trigger-happy in #10635. Consider, {{{#!hs asTypeOf :: a -> a -> a asTypeOf x _ = x }}} We could equivalently rewrite this with an equality constraint, {{{#!hs asTypeOf1 :: (a ~ b) => a -> b -> a asTypeOf1 x _ = x }}} If compiled with GHC 8.0 with `-Wredundant-constraints` we see a warning, {{{ hi.hs:4:1: warning: • Redundant constraint: a ~ b • In the type signature for: asTypeOf1 :: (a ~ b) => a -> b -> a }}} But is this really unused? We may not have referenced the constraint in the RHS, but surely the typechecker has gleaned something from it. Perhaps we should simply ignore equality constraints when generating redundant constraint warnings? -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11582> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
