All good questions! I have nothing to add to that list. Simon
From: ghc-devs [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Richard Eisenberg Sent: 14 December 2015 14:44 To: Эдгар Жаворонков <[email protected]> Cc: ghc-devs <[email protected]> Subject: Re: Warning suppression pragmas This proposal is a good start, but it needs more fleshing out. - What scopes are allowed to suppress over? For example, is it possible to suppress warnings for scopes other than a function (for example, within a case expression)? What about type declarations? Local declarations? In a type signature? - Is there a way to control what warnings are suppressed? Presumably, a user would like to suppress only certain warnings in certain places. - Your proposal contains motivation and examples. These are necessary parts of a proposal. But we also need a full specification of the feature, describing precisely the syntax (where, exactly, `SUPPRESS` is allowed) and semantics. I hope this feedback is helpful!

The main idea is that we mark functins with pragma and filter all warnings that it will throw. Although it is the question of bad design, i think users, who have to support old libraries will find this helpful. I don't know about suppressing specific kinds of warnings. I think, that it would be more precise to filter them in one place instead of many. Can someone review it?

There are still a number of open questions about the design that the wiki page doesn't yet address. For instance, you should explicitly specify, * What are the identifiers that appear after the `SUPPRESS` token? * What exactly does the pragma apply to? For instance, if I have a case like, hello :: Int -> Int {-# SUPPRESS some-warning #-} helloAgain :: Type -> AnotherType hello = (+1) helloAgain = error "42" or even just hello = (+1) {-# SUPPRESS another-warning #-} helloAgain = error "oops" What do you expect to happen? The behavior of the pragma in both of these cases should be unambiguously stated in the specification. * An concrete use-case motivating the change (preferably with examples showing how the proposed syntax would address the motivation) I know this sounds repetitive, but the act of writing down a proposal will help you immensely when you do move on to implementing your ideas. Thanks for your persistence.
