#16217: check-api-annotations should check that an annotation does not precede its span -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: alanz | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Test Suite | Version: 8.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Incorrect API Unknown/Multiple | annotation Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- For an API annotation to be useful, it must not occur before the span it is enclosed in. So, for `check-api-annotation` output, a line such as {{{ ((Test16212.hs:3:22-36,AnnOpenP), [Test16212.hs:3:21]), }}} should be flagged as an error, as the `AnnOpenP` location of `3:21` precedes its enclosing span of `3:22-26`. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16217 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
