Hi Magicloud, GHC seems to be trying to tell you that variables are lowercase in haskell. Since you don't have code, I'm guessing your error is from doing something like: > wrong1 = print ($(dyn "Just") 5) > wrong2 = print ($(varE 'Just) 5) Which is a compile time error since you apparently can't pass a Name which is capitalized to `VarE :: Name -> Exp' Any of these options work. They use the `ConE :: Name -> Exp' constructor instead: > opt1 = print ($(conE (mkName "Just")) 5) > opt2 = print ($(conE 'Just) 5) > opt3 = print ($( [| Just |]) 5 ) -- Adam _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
