#9914: Inconsistent handling of leading whitespace in GHCi -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: cactus | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 (Parser) | Keywords: GHCi Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: GHC | Related Tickets: rejects valid program | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by rwbarton): A simple fix would be to change {{{`isPrefixOf` stmt}}} to {{{`isPrefixOf` removeSpaces stmt}}} (or just `dropWhile isSpace`) in two places in `InteractiveUI.runStmt`. It may be nicer to `removeSpaces` before calling to `runStmt`, but that might not work for multiline commands, not sure what kind of layout rules those have. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9914#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
