[Haskell-cafe] getting fulling qualified names of types from hint/ghc api

19 Jan 2011

      Hi,

I am using hint's Language.Haskell.Interpreter.typeOf function to
dynamically get the type of a haskell expression but, unfortunately
for my purposes, I see that it returns unqualified names (I see in
Hint.Conversions that it uses the GHC function GHC.getPrintUnqual).

Is there any function in the GHC api or any other simple way of
getting the fully qualified types?

Surprisingly, I could not find any.

Thanks,
