#10336: Support qualified self {-# SOURCE #-} import -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: lowest | Milestone: ⊥ Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: GHC rejects | Unknown/Multiple valid program | Test Case: Blocked By: 7672 | Blocking: 11637 Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by ezyang): This StackOverflow question suggests one possible use for this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35608734/alias-a-module-defined-in-the- same-file-in-haskell which is to make it possible to disambiguate an locally defined identifier which is ambiguous due to another identifier in scope with the same name. But it is definitely a bit goofy to use an hs- boot file to achieve this. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10336#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
