#12459: UnboxedTuple makes overloaded labels fail to parse -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 (Parser) | Resolution: | Keywords: orf Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: GHC rejects | Unknown/Multiple valid program | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Iceland_jack): I bumped into this because I have `UnboxedTuples` enabled in my ''.ghci'' but in a future where `OverloadedLabels` are ubiquitous a user cannot use unboxed tuples without modifying every parenthesised label in the module first: potentially resulting in large diffs, potentially going against the style of the project (or style guide). Not a huge concern but definitely raises an eyebrow ---- This could of course be ameliorated by ''local'' language pragmas ;) think about it (local `Strict`, `RebindableSyntax`) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12459#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
