#11208: GHCi doesn't qualify types anymore -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: hvr | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: GHCi | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: regression Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: Other | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by hvr): I notice this also applies to warning messages, i.e. {{{ M.hs:5:1: Warning: Top-level binding with no type signature: f :: forall a. P.Num a => a -> a M.hs:7:1: Warning: Top-level binding with no type signature: g :: forall t a. (t -> a) -> P.Maybe t -> P.Maybe a }}} vs {{{ M.hs:5:1: warning: Top-level binding with no type signature: f :: forall a. Num a => a -> a M.hs:7:1: warning: Top-level binding with no type signature: g :: forall a r. (r -> a) -> Maybe r -> Maybe a }}} In any case, this causes breakage for tooling (and users) relying on the warnings and ghci-output to be qualified in the module-scope they've been triggered from. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11208#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
