#11452: Typed Template Haskell sneakily allows impredicativity -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: goldfire Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.1 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The following module is accepted: {{{#!hs {-# LANGUAGE ExplicitForAll, TemplateHaskell #-} module Bug where impred :: forall a. a -> a impred = $$( [|| \x -> x ||] ) }}} But that requires an intermediate `TExp (forall a. a -> a)`. Will fix in ongoing work. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11452 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
