#15183: Expose the SNat type and the natSing method -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: (none) Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Core | Version: 8.2.2 Libraries | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Currently, neither the `SNat` type nor the `natSing` method of `KnownNat` are exported from `GHC.TypeLits`. This is weird and awkward. There's no apparent reason not to expose the `SNat` ''type'', although it may make sense not to expose its definition. It also could possibly make sense not to expose the fact that `natSing` is a ''method'' of `KnownNat`, but there's no apparent reason not to export a function with its type. Can we just do those? 1. Export the `SNat` type. 2. Export a function with the type of `natSing`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15183 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
