#11715: Constraint vs * -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 8.0.1-rc1 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Typeable 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 goldfire): Yes -- you've answered your own question correctly. And, yes, you're right about doubling the constructors, etc. I was just mentioning the algebraic correspondence mostly to convince myself that what you're proposing would clearly work (as well as what I've proposed), from a technical standpoint. But it remains to be seen whether either approach really works out. I need to ponder this more and am curious for Simon's input. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11715#comment:56 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
