#11376: Inconsistent specified type variables among functions and datatypes/classes when using -XTypeApplications -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.1 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: TypeInType Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): So `TypeInType` enables `DataKinds` and `PolyKinds`, and `TypeApplications` enables `AllowAmbiguousTypes`. (The rest are default in ghci.) Turning off the "kind defaulting" to * from standard Haskell could result in some pretty confusing errors! Think of situations like #11324. But, OK, I guess... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11376#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
