#11994: ghci not applying defaulting when showing type -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: j.waldmann | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 7.10.3 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 j.waldmann):
if you want defaulting ...
This is not about changing the defaulting rules. It's just about the output of `:set +t`, which looked misleading to me. https://mail.haskell.org/pipermail/ghc-devs/2016-April/011958.html I did not realize that `it` is actually polymorphic. So the output is correct. But then the type of `it` is not the type of the value that is being printed - which is again strange. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11994#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
