#12906: GHC fails to typecheck Main module without main -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: Other Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Given a `Main` module without a `main` value, GHC 8 reports the missing `main` and then exits, without bothering to typecheck the rest of the module. Previous versions, I believe, had the more useful behavior of reporting type errors regardless. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12906 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
