#459: Bad parse error message --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: nobody | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: _|_ Component: Compiler (Parser) | Version: 6.4.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Other | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: --------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Changes (by igloo): * status: new => closed * resolution: None => fixed Comment: The error is now {{{ parse error (possibly incorrect indentation or mismatched brackets) }}} which is I think as we're going to get. While we can see that it's obviously a bracket problem rather than an indentation problem in this small example, in general it's hard for GHC to suggest the right one, so suggesting both seems reasonable. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/459#comment:12 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
