#14225: "No module named ... is imported" message is a bit misleading with qualified imports -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.2.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- It seems that the `No module named ... is imported` message produced in response to out-of-scope identifiers doesn't account for qualified imports. For instance, {{{ $ ghci GHCi, version 8.2.1: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ :? for help Loaded GHCi configuration from /home/ben/.ghci λ> import qualified Data.Maybe as M λ> M.fromJusr <interactive>:2:1: error: Not in scope: ‘M.fromJusr’ Perhaps you meant ‘M.fromJust’ (imported from Data.Maybe) No module named ‘M’ is imported. λ> }}} I suppose there is the question of whether we consider `M` to be a "module" here; I would argue that I imported it and therefore the message is at very least a bit misleading. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14225 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
