#10796: Illegal data constructor name: `fromList' ... When splicing a TH expression -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: erisco | Owner: RyanGlScott Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Template Haskell | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: newcomer Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D1313 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by RyanGlScott): * owner: => RyanGlScott * differential: => Phab:D1313 Comment: I can agree that it's probably not worth the effort to make such patterns work, especially since we'd have to convert the subpatterns to expressions to make this work, which would probably require a rewrite of `dataToQa`... I'll just stick to the `dataToExpQ` case. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10796#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
