#14030: Implement the "Derive Lift instances for data types in template-haskell" proposal -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: RyanGlScott Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.8.1 Component: Template Haskell | Version: 8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: deriving Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by harpocrates): Thanks for figuring out what the issue was in 8.2.2! Isn't this actually great news? Once https://phabricator.haskell.org/D5220 makes it through, the code that `Lift` will generate won't involve `conE`, `mkNameG_d`, etc. - it'll just be generating syntax for a bracket! I'm gonna try this out just to make sure I'm not missing anything. Another sanity check will be to see where we still use `THNames`. What do you think? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14030#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
