#12466: Typechecker regression: Inaccessible code in a type expected by the context -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.1 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: GHC rejects | Unknown/Multiple valid program | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by adamgundry): I agree that we should make the inaccessible code error into a warning. I'm on the fence as to whether that warning should automatically be suppressed in instance methods, or whether users should simply have to disable it themselves. It would be very useful for it automatically to be suppressed when checking generated code.
