#15321: Typed holes in Template Haskell splices produce bewildering error messages -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: RyanGlScott | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.8.1 Component: Template Haskell | Version: 8.4.3 Resolution: | Keywords: TypedHoles Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Poor/confusing | Unknown/Multiple error message | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Tritlo): Oh my, this is bad, especially #15007. I wish that I'd known earlier! I think that the approach mentioned in comment:4 is the way to go for now, as the "include" in "Valid hole fits include" allow us to err on the side of omission, and I hope that we can add this ASAP. I'll then make sure to implement more comprehensive fix, as mentioned in comment:6 later. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15321#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
