#10343: Make Typeable track kind information better -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: oerjan | Owner: goldfire Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: typeOf :: | Typeable (a::k) => Proxy a -> | TypeRep Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #9858 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): OK, so the payload is that you want {{{ typeRepKind : forall (k::*). forall (a::k). TypeRep a -> TypeRep k }}} At least I think that's the right type. That's a nice short specification. I hope that it would not be too hard to implement. The whole project of moving from the existing to the new `TypeRep` needs someone to lead it; maybe that can be your weekend project! The key ticket is #11011, and wiki page [wiki:Typeable]. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10343#comment:28 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
