You are quite right. I've fixed the HEAD, and the fix should appear in 6.4.2 Thanks for the report Simon ________________________________ From: template-haskell-bounces@haskell.org [mailto:template-haskell-bounces@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Tomasz Zielonka Sent: 07 October 2005 14:12 To: template-haskell@haskell.org Subject: [Template-haskell] mkName problem Hello! The attached code shows a behaviour which I don't understand. This could be a bug in TH or a misunderstanding on my side. The problem is that dynamically bound Names made with mkName sometimes "don't see" the variable. See the code for details. It could be a bit shorter, but I wanted to show why I cat't use the 'var syntax. Try to --make T, then uncomment the marked line in T.hs. Best regards Tomasz
