#14070: Allow ‘unsafe’ deriving strategy, deriving code with ‘unsafeCoerce’ -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: 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 Iceland_jack): Is there an ETA on quantified contexts? Do they cover legitimate uses of '`UnsafeDeriving`' or are there cases where it would still be useful? If we must wait a few releases for quantified constraints to hit this can function as a stopgap solution, could be marked as experimental -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14070#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
