Re: [Haskell-cafe] Request: warn about language extensions that are not used
Thanks Peter. I'd love to have this feature also. I go back every so often
and try removing each of the extensions listed in my LANGUAGE pragma.
Didn't occur to me that the compiler could be doing it for me. Regards, -

Okay, I submitted it as a GHC feature request. Thanks for the feedback.

refactoring, some language extensions might not be needed anymore, and

What do you think?
So you mean something like if you put {-# LANGUAGE
GeneralizedNewtypeDeriving #-} in a file, but never do newtype
deriving, it would warn you?
I have no idea how hard that'd be to implement, but that sounds kind
of cool. Useful for both refactoring and when you've inherited old
code.
Cheers,

Thanks Conal.
For people interested, here's the ticket.

Martijn Van Steenbergen indirectly revealed a feature request to the feature
request feature of the feature database :-) Okay, I'll stop the nonsense: it
would be nice if the community could rate the popularity of a feature
request, which Martijn now just did by adding a comment.

As I understand it the current scheme is that you vote for a bug by
adding yourself to the CC list.

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Request: warn about language extensions that are not used
I'd love that. I've been wanting this for a while, at least
subconsciously. Thanks for making it explicit. :-)

Re: [Haskell-cafe] Request: warn about language extensions that are not used
Yes, exactly. Indeed I should have given an example, thanks for doing so, I
was too hasty being lazy :)
