#15008: Type synonyms with hidden, determined type variables -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Research | needed Component: Compiler | Version: 8.5 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 nomeata): Ah, nice! This answers the question “is it feasible and implementable?”. It still leaves the question “do we want to provide the convenience of a type synonym to our users” so that they don't have to encode it manually using such a class and an instance. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15008#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
