#12529: Error message: visible type application of constructor/variable that is not in scope -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: | TypeApplications Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Incorrect | Unknown/Multiple warning at compile-time | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by lexi.lambda): I recently ran into this, too. It’s definitely extremely confusing, since usually identifiers that aren’t in scope are ''very'' clearly indicated in error messages, but nothing in these errors would suggest that’s the problem. It took me a while to realize what exactly the problem was. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12529#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
