| /tmp/Test.hs:4:1: | The multi-parameter class `C' cannot have generic methods | In the class declaration for `C' Aha. Trawling the commit logs, this test is simply a vestige of the PREVIOUS generic-class story, now long gone. So we can lift the restriction easily. I'll commit a patch shortly; I hope it'll be in time for 7.4 Simon | -----Original Message----- | From: glasgow-haskell-users-bounces@haskell.org [mailto:glasgow-haskell- | users-bounces@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Reiner Pope | Sent: 16 January 2012 05:32 | To: glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org | Subject: DefaultSignatures and MultiParamTypeClasses | | Hi all, | | I just tried, and it appears that the new DefaultSignatures extension doesn't | work with multi parameter type classes.
