#9858: Typeable instances should be kind-aware -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dreixel | Owner: Type: bug | Status: merge Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.10.2 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | typecheck/should_fail/T9858a,b,c; | should_run/T9858b | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D652 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by oerjan): Well I ''could'' continue to quibble about the current design's intrinsic lack of support for my strange test cases in the discussion of comments [comment:43] - [comment:47] and the IMO more reasonable one in comment [comment:79]. Of course I was trying to imagine maximal backwards compatibility there. However, I realize the current design is much less complicated, and apparently works for what people actually do. I don't see any further actual exploits at this time. :) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9858#comment:109 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
