#11786: Need -fno-print-explicit-runtime-reps to work on IfaceType, else RuntimeRep leaks -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 Resolution: fixed | 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 sighingnow): This bug still exists in ghc-HEAD. With or without `:set -fprint-explicit-runtime-reps`, we both have {{{#!hs Prelude> :t ($) ($) :: (a -> b) -> a -> b Prelude> :i ($) ($) :: forall (r :: GHC.Types.RuntimeRep) a (b :: TYPE r). (a -> b) -> a -> b -- Defined in ‘GHC.Base’ infixr 0 $ }}} This behavior is inconsistent with the description in user guide: https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/master/users-guide/using.html#ghc-flag --fprint-explicit-runtime-reps -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11786#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
