#9756: Warn about unnecessary unsafeCoerce -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 7.9 checker) | Operating System: Keywords: | Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: Difficulty: Unknown | None/Unknown Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- `unsafeCoerce` has been around a lot longer than `coerce`, so older code tends to use it even if `coerce` could do the job. It would be nice if the type checker could produce a warning when it detected such a situation. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9756 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
