[GHC] #13679: Kill eqIfaceType
#13679: Kill eqIfaceType -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- `IfaceType.eqIfaceType` seems to be dead code. Can we kill it? It appears to be something to do with backpack. It would be good to kill it because eqType is subtle. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13679 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

Backpack is taking a different approach now. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13679#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
