#12050: Allow haddock comments on non-record types -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 (Parser) | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- There are a variety of cases I have found myself wanting to place haddock documentation on fields of non-record data types rather often in the past. The syntax for this might look like, {{{#!hs data Foo = Foo -- ^ A foo Int -- ^ how big is the foo? String -- ^ the name of the foo }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12050 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
