#15330: Error message prints invisible kind arguments in a visible matter -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.8.1 Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.4.3 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: TypeInType Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Poor/confusing | Unknown/Multiple error message | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by RyanGlScott): That sounds good to me. Two remaining questions: * How should we print `InvisATM`-tagged types when `-fprint-explicit- kinds` is enabled? Using the above example, should it be `f Bool 'True` or `f @Bool 'True`? Should `-dsuppress-type-applications` enter the picture somewhere? * Would we need to pretty-print `VisDepATM`-tagged types differently from `VanillaATM`-tagged ones? That is, why should we distinguish `VisDepATM` at all? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15330#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
