Hi,
I'm trying to use xmlrpc module with hugs. The problems are not
really related to this particulare module, so the question is here.
A module generated from the DTD for XML-RPC by HaXml contains
import in the following form:
import Prelude (all, maybe, (++))
or something like that to avoid name conflicts with types of the
same name defined in the module. In Hugs it leads to (:) not being
imported into the module. Is there a way to import just (:) from
the Prelude?
This one is tricky due to the fact that (:) is very special. I think
various Haskell implementations differ on exactly how this is
handled. I don't know enough about Hugs to say for sure.
Is there a way to import all but some symbols from some module?
Yes. You want the 'hiding' keyword, eg,
import Prelude hiding (foo, bar, baz)
Is (:) a data constructor?
Yes.
