#12626: Remove redundant type applications in Core -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nomeata | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- This ticket is a fork for #12618, which proposes to add saturated data constructor applications to Core with the purpose of omitting redundant type applications (think `(,)`), and explores generalizing the idea to any application. Below are my comments to that ticket, which I delete there, to make it less noisy (I got excited on the travel back from ICFP and spammed it too much). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12626 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
