#7854: Constrained method type accepted in Haskell 98 mode -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: refold | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Unknown Type of failure: | Blocked By: None/Unknown | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by monoidal): * status: closed => new * resolution: wontfix => Comment: Sorry for reopening, but I think the situation can be improved, currently `-XConstrainedClassMethods` seems to do nothing and the documentation is misleading. I would support deprecating and eventually removing this pragma, and adding a notice to "Known bugs and infelicities" section. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7854#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
