#11071: The "Not in scope" error is misleading -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mojojojo | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 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 osa1): I don't understand why would anyone conclude from this message: {{{ Not in scope: NameSpace.name }}} that the namespace doesn't define the name. The message doesn't say anything about something being defined or not, it's very clearly saying that the name is not in scope. It may be because of different reasons. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11071#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
