#14042: Misleading error message when type family is used in datatype's return kind -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.0.1 checker) | Keywords: TypeInType, Resolution: | TypeFamilies, newcomer Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: GHC rejects | Unknown/Multiple valid program | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by goldfire): What would you like the error message to say? It looks correct to me. Perhaps it could have an "NB: no type functions" or something, but it's not too far off. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14042#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
