hi, thanks to Stefan, I am past the second problem in compiling this program (needed to change 'bounds' to 'getBounds'). now I get a more intimidating error message...
I am trying to compile paradox 1.0, an older (GHC 5) Haskell program, with GHC 6.6.1. I get the intimidating error message shown below. I would appreciate any advice about how to fix this. I am guessing that the problem might be a change in the type of some library function. best regards, scott p.s. the file causing the error is in the paradox source code at http://www.cs.sunysb.edu/~stoller/out/paradox-1.0-casc.tar.gz Building paradox (release) Compiling: AnalysisTypes.hs Glasgow Haskell Compiler, Version 6.6.1, for Haskell 98, compiled by GHC version 6.6.1 Using package config file: /usr/local/lib/ghc-6.6.1/package.conf wired-in package base mapped to base-2.1.1 wired-in package rts mapped to rts-1.0 wired-in package haskell98 mapped to haskell98-1.0 wired-in package template-haskell mapped to template-haskell-2.1 Hsc static flags: -fauto-sccs-on-all-toplevs -static Created temporary directory: /tmp/ghc835_0 *** Checking old interface for main:AnalysisTypes: *** Parser: *** Renamer/typechecker: AnalysisTypes.hs:135:2: Inferred type is less polymorphic than expected Quantified type variable `s' is mentioned in the environment: m :: forall b.
