#9869: Add new notation for negative numbers when using {-# LANGUAGE NegativeLiterals #-} -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bg_ | Owner: bg_ Type: feature | Status: closed request | Milestone: Priority: low | Version: 7.8.3 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: invalid | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by carter): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: ~ is already used by haskell for type equality in constraints, eg `(size ~7 )=> SizedList size Int` so its not clear how adding a new meaning for ~ would improve matters. closing this as invalid baring discussion on libraries list, ghc-users, ghc-devs or #ghc irc channel to the contrary. (that is, some additional discussion should happen on a mailing list for this proprosal to have teeth.) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9869#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
