#11409: Cannot instantiate literals using TypeApplications -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Feuerbach | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.4.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1-rc1 Resolution: | Keywords: | TypeApplications Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #11352 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by int-index): I think the correct way forward here is changing how `-XTypeApplications` works with partially applied functions. If I can write `fromInteger @t n`, shouldn't `fromInteger n @t` behave the same? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11409#comment:19 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
