Re: [nhc-bugs] Word is not an instance of Bits

Hi Daan,

I am trying to compile DData with nhc98, but unfortunately, the Word type is not an instance of the Bits class, so I find myself unable to do an unsigned shiftR operation on them...

An unfortunate omission in 1.16, which has long been fixed in CVS. The forthcoming 1.18 release will have "type Word = Word32" and "instance Bits Word32", available by importing either of these: import Data.Word import Foreign Regards, Malcolm
