#10576: REPL returns list of all imported names when operator completion requested -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Geraldus | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 7.8.4 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple completions complete command | Type of failure: Incorrect result operator | at runtime Architecture: | Blocked By: Unknown/Multiple | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- When querying completions for operators GHCi returns a list containing all imported names rather than suitable completions. For example, if you simply start GHCi and run `:complete repl ">>"` command it will give you all names from base and Prelude. Then if you import something else, for example `:m +Data.Text`, the result of query will contain names from Data.Text also. In case of projects (`cabal repl`) things are worst, because returned list contains all names imported project-wise and it could be really huge. GHCi behaves similarly with following queries: :complete repl "(>>" :complete repl "Prelude.>>" :complete repl "Prelude.(>>" I only tested this on OS X 10.9, GHC 7.8.4 -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10576 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
