#14088: Allow users to omit`forall` -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Iceland_jack | Owner: (none) Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.2.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Just an idea I wanted to get out there, I don't think it causes parsing ambiguity {{{#!hs -- id :: forall a. a -> a id :: a. a -> a -- everywhere :: (forall b. Term b => b -> b) -> (forall a. Term a => a -> a) everywhere :: (b. Term b => b -> b) -> (a. Term a => a -> a) }}} I think it looks beautiful but clearly more difficult to Google or grep for. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14088 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
