#11660: Remove Type pretty-printer in favor of IfaceType -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): I'm sure we can deal with that. Eg in `TyCoRep` put just {{{ instance Outputable Type where ppr = pprType }}} and then yes `{-# SOURCE #-}` import `IfaceType` which defines `pprType` and others. Import `IfactType` into `Type` and re-export the pretty- printing functions. But before worrying much let's check that it works at all! -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11660#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
