#12560: ‘:info TYPE’ mentions any instance that includes ‘Type’ -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 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 Iceland_jack): Maybe this is expected (please close if so), without `print-explicit- kinds` I was surprised to see many pages of seemingly unrelated instances (more than I posted in this minimal example). The information for `*` lists no instances nor does [https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-prim-0.5.0.0/docs/GHC- Types.html#t:TYPE Hackage], I suppose I expected the same. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12560#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
