#11011: Add type-indexed type representations (`TypeRep a`) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bjmprice | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 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 ekmett): We've spoken about moving `reflection` into GHC itself, because the core of it is well typed, even if it can't be properly expressed in the surface language, and we had planned to put it in `GHC.Reflection`. (Back at ICFP in Boston a couple of years ago.) The main reason why it didn't happen at the time was that by the time Austin and I got done writing `Proxy#` the conference was over. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11011#comment:36 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
