#10250: API Annotations : add Locations in hsSyn were layout occurs -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: alanz | Owner: alanz Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.2 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple ApiAnnotations | Type of failure: None/Unknown Architecture: | Blocked By: Unknown/Multiple | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- At the moment ghc-exactprint, which uses the GHC API Annotations to provide a framework for roundtripping Haskell source code with optional AST edits, has to implement a horrible workaround to manage the points where layout needs to be captured. These are MatchGroup HsDo HsCmdDo HsLet LetStmt HsCmdLet GRHSs To provide a more natural representation, the contents subject to layout rules need to be wrapped in a SrcSpan. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10250 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
