#11970: Simplify Parent for patten synonyms -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: mpickering Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 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 simonpj): I'm afraid I don't understand the problem with which you are wrestling. My suggestion is to radically simplify what happens * Always allow `T(K)` in the renamer. Make no attempt to check that K is a child of T. * Sort it out in `tcExports`.
