#12601: explicit foralls do not distinguish applicable types -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dmwit | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: | TypeApplications Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #13401 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by RyanGlScott): * status: new => closed * keywords: => TypeApplications * resolution: => fixed * related: => #13401 Comment: The users' guide documentation for `TypeApplications` has been improved since 8.0.1, and that section now properly mentions that if you wish to learn which types are available for visible type application, then you should use `:type +v`, not `:type`. See https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/8.4.2/docs/html/users_guide/glasgow_exts.... #visible-type-application (the result of #13401). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12601#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
