#9183: GHC shouldn't expand constraint synonyms -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: Feuerbach | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by Feuerbach): Ah, right! I've used this trick in the past many times, but every now and then I get lured by the nice-looking constraint synonyms, and forget about the alternative. So, it looks like the semantics is not a problem. Perhaps it'd be possible to introduce a better syntax for it? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9183#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
