#15510: Qualified Holes -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: andrewthad | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: 8.6.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.4.3 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 andrewthad): Definitely no text pattern matching, since that would steal syntax. I'll probably write this up as a proposal in a few weeks. I don't think there is any downside to this, since it replaces an error message and upgrades it to a better error message. It is probably only useful in niche cases though. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15510#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
