Re: Feedback on -Wredundant-constraints

I don't have any personal experience with the new warning, but it does sound to me like there are two separate warnings (redundant vs unused constraints) combined under a single flag. So I would support separating them! On Sat, Jun 11, 2016, at 09:38, Carter Schonwald wrote:

Either way, do we have a strong agreement that for ghc 8.2 that this warning should be split up and the noiser part should be moved out of the default wall set?

To better elaborate : I definitely want this for the next major version i.e. 8.2.* , but I'm also wondering if perhaps the "overly constrained type" warning should be flat out removed from Wall even in ghc 8.0.2,

It's a tall ask, but why not? On Jun 6, 2016 12:16 PM, "Eric Seidel" wrote:

I don't suppose there's any hope of having this resolved prior to GHC 8.2 because it is a real usability regression? Because I think we can all agree that the proposed change would not break any 8.0 series code, and positively impact everyone.

Do you mean prior to 8.0.2? _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
