Too late. We had a stable link, I used it, Google used it, blog posts were written that linked to it, I've emailed my wife links to it, I've put them in Word documents, I've posted them on internal intranets. You can't create a link, put content behind it, then move the content - it just breaks

Qualified names in import lists

2009-12-28 Thread Niklas Broberg
Hi all, I have a bug report [1] for haskell-src-exts pertaining to the use of qualified names in import specifications, e.g. module Main where import Foo (Bar.bar) GHC apparently accepts this code, but I can find no mention of such a feature in the GHC docs. Personally I don't see why this

This discussion definitely does not belong on the Haskell-Beginners list. Besides not being a topic for beginners, being there is keeping it under the radar of many or most of the people who work on these things in Haskell. I am moving the discussion to the GHC users list, as suggested by

module Main where import Foo (Bar.bar) GHC apparently accepts this code, but I can find no mention of such a feature in the GHC docs. It certainly is an extension beyond Haskell'98 and Haskell 2010, which do not permit qualified names in import lists. I cannot think for any use for such

If ghc really does accept the example given, I would like to know what entity Bar.bar refers to, since it cannot possibly be exported by Foo. In this example Bar exports bar, and Foo re-exports module Bar. /Niklas ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing

I've now updated Hoogle to point at the new links. I still think the old link's should be restored (perhaps as a permanent redirect code?), but at least it doesn't break Hoogle now. Thanks, Neil On Mon, Dec 28, 2009 at 11:06 AM, Malcolm Wallace malcolm.wall...@cs.york.ac.uk wrote: Too late. We
