#10344: Make BranchList simpler -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: goldfire Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- As Adam Gundry suggested, `BranchList` could be made much simpler by actually storing a list in the `Branched` case. Though, as I'm thinking about it, what's better about a real list over a `BranchList`? We're more familiar with it... but perhaps adding a `Foldable` instance for `BranchList` would solve the problem. In any case, this ticket is to record the desire for improvement. If Adam is up to it, he may fix this with Phab:D841. Otherwise, I'll get to it. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10344 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
