So, how can we make use of this fix? On 26 April 2010 19:47, David Waern wrote:

Hi all,

If I have the following data type:

data Expr = Num Int | Expr :+: Expr | Expr :-: Expr

Haddock handles the infix constructors, and generates a very nice output (html in this case) However when I try to reference to one of the infix constructors in the markup of other functions it fails to hyperlink.

-- | If the input is 'Num' does magic, if it is ':+:' does even more magic! someFunc :: Expr -> Expr

In the output of this markup, the 'Num' is hyperlinked but the ':+:' is not. Is there a different syntax for infix constructors (and for infix functions presumably) or does haddock simple lack this feature?

Infix functions work fine (try referring to e.g. '&&' in the haddock comment), but infix constructors apparently not.

Yes, I actually fixed this a few weeks ago in Haddock's lexer. Colon was just not included in the character set for identifiers.
