#10803: New SignatureSections extension -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: hvr | Owner: hvr Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.12.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D1185 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by goldfire): Adding a portion of a comment from Phab:D1185, as Trac is better for design discussions: Once we have the visible type application feature (#5296), is this one needed any more? Do we have real-ish examples of when we want signature sections? The examples for http://augustss.blogspot.co.at/2014/04/a-small- haskell-extension.html are all quite easy to write with visible type application. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10803#comment:11 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
