#7995: module Pretty's "text/str" rule doesn't fire ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Reporter: parcs | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: simplCore/should_compile/T7995 | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: ---------------------------------------------+------------------------------ Changes (by simonpj): * status: new => closed * difficulty: => Unknown * resolution: => fixed * testcase: => simplCore/should_compile/T7995 Comment: OK, I've fixed this. I'm not sure it's really worth adding a test but I have done so anyway. Good catch... knowing that this works should let us replace {{{ ptext (sLit "foo") }}} with the much tidier {{{ text "foo" }}} without increasing code size or execution time. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7995#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
