#10027: Importing constructor of associated data type fails -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: lspitzner | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | constructor import associated data Type of failure: None/Unknown | type Blocked By: | Architecture: Related Tickets: | Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by goldfire): Personally, I would find it surprising if module B ''did'' export D. I don't consider writing an instance of a thing as something that will add the thing to an implicit export list. I'm OK with being surprised in this way for the sake of practicality, but I would find it surprising. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10027#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
