#11334: GHC panic when calling typeOf on a promoted data constructor -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: bgamari Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.0.1-rc1 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: TypeInType Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Compile-time | Unknown/Multiple crash | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D1757 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): Indeed I have also wondered how `NoPolyKinds` is supposed to behave. In fact, this is something that could probably use more explanation in the users guide. We discuss the behavior of `-XPolyKinds` in great depth but hardly mention how poly-kinded types should behave in modules with `-XNoPolyKinds`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11334#comment:17 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
