#4175: GHCi support for type/data families should match that of related features ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: claus | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: low | Milestone: 7.6.2 Component: GHCi | Version: 6.12.3 Keywords: FD TF | Os: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Testcase: ghci/scripts/T4175 Blockedby: | Blocking: Related: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Changes (by simonpj): * testcase: => ghci/scripts/T4175 Comment: Thanks Patrick. I've committed your patch, and added your example as a test case. I had to update Haddock, which leaves a new opportunity for Haddock too: {{{ commit b6ef14069677c79f85cfdce7b5d69b06ca35f8b5 Author: Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj@microsoft.com> Date: Fri Mar 15 14:16:10 2013 +0000 Adapt to tcRnGetInfo returning family instances too This API change was part of the fix to Trac #4175. But it offers new information to Haddock: the type-family instances, as well as the class instances, of this type. This patch just drops the new information on the floor, but there's an open opportunity to use it in the information that Haddock displays. src/Haddock/Interface/AttachInstances.hs | 6 +++--- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/4175#comment:11> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
