#12809: TYPE 'UnboxedTupleRep is still a lie -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: goldfire Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: | LevityPolymorphism Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: | typecheck/should_run/T12809 Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by RyanGlScott): Thanks, goldfire! I'll try to revisit the fixes for #11723, #11724, and #11509 at some point. I believe they all put in checks that forbade the use of `UnboxedTupleRep` and `UnboxedSumRep` in deriving because it was assuming the inadequacies of the old system for levity polymorphism, but now that's it's overhauls, I don't believe those checks are required anymore. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12809#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
