[GHC] #12365: Update documentation for partial type signatures

#12365: Update documentation for partial type signatures -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Documentation | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- In the [https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/master/users- guide/glasgow_exts.html#partial-type-signatures documentation] for partial type signatures, I found several bits that are out of date: - There are several sample error messages given. These have been substantively reworded ({{{Found hole `_` with type: ...}}} to {{{Found type wildcard `_` standing for ...}}}) where I find the new wording much clearer. - In the "Where can they occur?" section, there's no mention of `TypeApplications`, which is a new context where they can appear. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12365 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
