#10897: Incorrect ASSERT for buildPatSyn -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: cactus Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 7.11 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Compile-time | Unknown/Multiple crash | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by cactus): Without having looked at the details yet, I'd just like to mention that the reason I've put those `ASSERT`s in is because the plan, at one point, was to eventually get rid of most arguments to `buildPatSyn` and just reconstruct them from the `matcher`'s `idType`. Unfortunately, I can't remember off-hand why that wasn't feasible. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10897#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
