The minor breakage consideration is for folks who imported Data.Foldable (Foldable(..)) now they'll get an extra couple of methods, but that is a pretty fragile way to do imports anyways, and I think the benefits far outweigh the costs. -Edward On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 2:08 PM, Paterson, Ross <R.Paterson@city.ac.uk>wrote:
It's a pity to have to add methods to get around GHC's limitations, but it seems harmless. Looks like you'll want strict versions of all 5 methods, though.
The only potential breakage is that foldl' and foldr' are exported via Foldable(..) rather than directly. This could affect modules that use explicit imports.
I don't think so. You can import methods separately. _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries
