#4479: Implement Dot as Postfix Function Apply -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gidyn | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 7.5 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by AntC): @gidyn, I don't see what that proposal has to do with dot as postfix function apply (?) This dot as ... idea is not the same as in TDNR -- despite spj's first comment 6 years ago. Dot as ... is purely syntactic sugar for function apply, with type-directed resolution as per standard class/instance semantics. There's already too many proposals for records (and related enablers), without mixing them up. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4479#comment:28 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
