Quoting alex <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I would like to do this:
class Foo t where
hi :: t -> Bool
class Foo t => Bar t where
hi x = True
This is arguably one of the most requested features in Haskell. The
only
reason why it hasn't been implemented yet is that some of the corner
cases
are a little subtle.
Really? This code doesn't even really make any sense to me. In order
to be an instance of Bar, t has to already be an instance of Foo,
implying that the function hi is already defined for t. What would the
function in this example do?
instance Foo Wibble where
hi x = False
instance Bar Wibble
myFunc :: Wibble -> Bool
myFunc x = hi x
