#9515: Deprecate -XExplicitForAll -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.8.3 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by goldfire): I'm -1 on this, along the same lines as nomeata. I think it would be unexpected to have, say, `ExistentialQuantification` imply `ScopedTypeVariables`. If there were a clear upside, I would back off, but I don't see a compelling reason to do this. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9515#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
