#12249: Template Haskell top level scoping error -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Template Haskell | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: 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 goldfire): Your last comment suggests a way to think about all of this: Each ''declaration group'' (as defined in the [https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/glasgow_exts... #template-haskell manual]) is its own unnamed module that exports all of its symbols. That actually might not be a bad way of implementing it either. (And `newName` identifiers should never be exported, as per discussion in comment:13:ticket:10599, yet to be finished.) In any case, I still say you're building some sort of ad-hoc implicit module system. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12249#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
