#14391: Make the simplifier independent of the typechecker -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: newcomer 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 ulysses4ever): One more question. Consider a part of `tcImportDecl_maybe`: {{{ initIfaceTcRn (importDecl name) }}} You said that it is necessary to create a variant of `initIfaceTcRn`. That sounds fine. But here is another thing: `importDecl` has `IfM` in its type. And `IfM` is defined in `TcRnTypes`, so leaving it doesn't bring us decoupling from the typechecker. Should we also replace `importDecl`? This sounds like a lot of work, because it depends on `loadInterface` which is
100 LOCs.
