#15240: GHCi's :doc doesn't find the documentation for some class methods -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: sjakobi | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: GHCi | Version: 8.5 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by sjakobi): `--show-iface` reveals that e.g. `GHC/Show.hi` ''does'' contain docs for `show`: {{{ show: " A specialised variant of 'showsPrec', using precedence context zero, and returning an ordinary 'String'." }}} So either we're loading the wrong iface our `Name` isn't the same as the one in the `DeclDocMap`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15240#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
