Given the angst that seems to be going on in the time dependency discussion, I thought I would take a look in the other packages in the Haskell Platform and see what extensions are present in the current platform. I figured other people might find this list useful for the sake of this discussion. I found the following dependencies: CPP: GLUT, haskell-src, HUnit, network, OpenGL, parallel, QuickCheck, time, regex-posix, stm, zlib, array#, bytestring#, Cabal#, containers#, directory#, filepath#, hpc#, old-time#, packedstring#, process#, random#, syb#, unix# ForeignFunctionInterface: editline, GLUT, OpenGL, regex-posix*, time, zlib, array#***, bytestring#, directory#, old-time#, unix#, Win32# MultiParamTypeClasses: cgi, mtl, fgl, regex-base, regex-compat, regex-posix, array#** FunctionalDependencies: mtl, regex-base, regex-compat, regex-posix FlexibleInstances: fgl, mtl, regex-base*, regex-posix*, array#** ScopedTypeVariables: fgl, bytestring***, syb# TypeSynonymInstances: mtl, regex-base*, regex-posix*, array#**, template-haskell# ExistentialQuantification: parsec OverlappingInstances: fgl GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving: regex-posix* FlexibleContexts: regex-base*, regex-posix*, array#** MagicHash: array***, bytestring***, containers***, template-haskell# DeriveDataTypeable: bytestring***, containers***, template-haskell# Rank2Types: array***, containers***, syb# UnboxedTuples: array***, bytestring*** UnliftedFFITypes: array***, bytestring*** PatternSignatures: syb#**** PatternGuards: template-haskell# PolymorphicComponents: template-haskell# EmptyDataDecls: unix# ???: ghc-prim#, integer# * w/ split base ** except on nhc-98 *** only for ghc **** only for old versions of ghc < 6.10 # ghc 6.10.3 core library, not included directly, but implied On Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 11:13 AM, Henning Thielemann < lemming@henning-thielemann.de> wrote:

What are the code standards for the HP libs? I was under
the impression
that it was best to maintain H98 compatibility where possible, especially so for libraries in the old standard libs
distribution. I did
a quick search for platform standards but didn't find
anything relevant.
It's yet to be discussed on this list. Perhaps this is a good opportunity to start that discussion. Do you want to draft a reasonable starting position?
In the HTTP-4000 library there are uses of TypeSynonymInstances which are not necessary. They can be avoided by known idioms: http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/List_instance _______________________________________________ Libraries mailing list Libraries@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries
