#10653: PatternSynonyms should be imported/exported as part of the wildcard notation -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gridaphobe | Owner: mpickering Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: | PatternSynonyms, pattern synonyms Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by mpickering): Richard is right that I removed it because I thought there was some worry that the typechecker would have to get involved but if he says not then I think it's a good idea. I'm of the opinion that without this, pattern synonyms are a bit useless but apart from the two requests from Thomas and Eric I don't think wider opinion has been solicited. I'll clean up the wiki page and post it to ghc-devs. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10653#comment:32 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
