#8815: confusing language in error message -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by goldfire): See very relevant discussion in #3647. It was decided that removing the `-X` from error messages made copy-and-paste into `LANGUAGE` pragmas easier. Perhaps surrounding extensions in error messages with quotes would be a happy medium? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8815#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
