#3401: unintuitive error message about unbalanced parentheses
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
Reporter: tinlyx | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Compiler
Version: 6.10.3 | Severity: normal
Keywords: | Testcase:
Os: Windows | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple
--------------------+-------------------------------------------------------
A minimal test case is as follows:
testFunc file = do
let file1 = file)
return file1
If you try to load it, you will get:
...\test.hs:111:2:
The last statement in a 'do' construct must be an expression
This error message is kind of unfriendly, and probably only GHC authors
know how a mismatched parenthesis can lead to such an error message.
