Using {-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-} you can use 'foo and ''Foo to get access to the names in scope in the module that is building the splice, rather than worrying about what names are in scope in the module the code gets spliced into. -Edward On Mon, Mar 16, 2015 at 10:54 PM, J.

I'm trying to write some Template Haskell code that (among other things) manipulates IntSets. So, for example, I'd like a splice to generate a call to Data.IntSet.fromList. However, I'm not sure how IntSet will be imported in the target module. Is there a way to resolve the fully qualified name (or similar) to a TH Name, without having to know how it's imported in the splicing module? (The obvious approach---mkName "Data.IntSet.fromList"---seems not to work in GHC 7.8.)
Thanks!
