* Fix TcSimplify.decideQuantification for kind variablesSimon Peyton Jones2017-03-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TcSimplify.decideQuantification was doing the Wrong Thing when "growing" the type variables to quantify over. We were trying to do this on a tyvar set where we'd split off the dependent type varaibles; and we just got it wrong. A kind variable wasn't being generalised properly, with confusing knock on consequences. All this led to Trac #13371 and Trac #13393. This commit tidies it all up: * The type TcDepVars is renamed as CandidateQTvs; and splitDepVarsOfType to candidateQTyVarsOfType * The code in TcSimplify.decideQuantification is simpler. It no longer does the tricky "grow" stuff over TcDepVars. Instead it use ordinary VarSets (thereby eliminating the nasty growThetaTyVarsDSet) and uses that to filter the result of candidateQTyVarsOfType. * I documented that candidateQTyVarsOfType returns the type variables in a good order in which to quantify, and rewrote it to use an accumulator pattern, so that we would predicatably get left-to-right ordering. In doing all this I also made UniqDFM behave a little more nicely: * When inserting an element that is there already, keep the old tag, while still overwriting with the new value. * This means that when doing udfmToList we get back elements in the order they were originally inserted, rather than in reverse order. It's not a big deal, but in a subsequent commit I use it to improve the order of type variables in inferred types. All this led to a lot of error message wibbles: - changing the order of quantified variables - changing the order in which instances are listed in GHCi - changing the tidying of variables in typechecker erors There's a submodule update for 'array' because one of its tests has an error-message change. I may not have associated all of them with the correct commit.
* Kill varSetElemsWellScoped in quantifyTyVarsBartosz Nitka2016-04-261-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | varSetElemsWellScoped introduces unnecessary non-determinism in inferred type signatures. Removing this instance required changing the representation of TcDepVars to use deterministic sets. This is the last occurence of varSetElemsWellScoped, allowing me to finally remove it. Test Plan: ./validate I will update the expected outputs when commiting, some reordering of type variables in types is expected.

* Add kind equalities to GHC.Richard Eisenberg2015-12-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This implements the ideas originally put forward in "System FC with Explicit Kind Equality" (ICFP'13). There are several noteworthy changes with this patch: * We now have casts in types. These change the kind of a type. See new constructor `CastTy`. * All types and all constructors can be promoted. This includes GADT constructors. GADT pattern matches take place in type family equations. In Core, types can now be applied to coercions via the `CoercionTy` constructor. * Coercions can now be heterogeneous, relating types of different kinds. A coercion proving `t1 :: k1 ~ t2 :: k2` proves both that `t1` and `t2` are the same and also that `k1` and `k2` are the same. * The `Coercion` type has been significantly enhanced. The documentation in `docs/core-spec/core-spec.pdf` reflects the new reality. * The type of `*` is now `*`. No more `BOX`. * Users can write explicit kind variables in their code, anywhere they can write type variables. For backward compatibility, automatic inference of kind-variable binding is still permitted. * The new extension `TypeInType` turns on the new user-facing features. * Type families and synonyms are now promoted to kinds. This causes trouble with parsing `*`, leading to the somewhat awkward new `HsAppsTy` constructor for `HsType`. This is dispatched with in the renamer, where the kind `*` can be told apart from a type-level multiplication operator. Without `-XTypeInType` the old behavior persists. With `-XTypeInType`, you need to import `Data.Kind` to get `*`, also known as `Type`. * The kind-checking algorithms in TcHsType have been significantly rewritten to allow for enhanced kinds. * The new features are still quite experimental and may be in flux. * TODO: Several open tickets: #11195, #11196, #11197, #11198, #11203. * TODO: Update user manual. Tickets addressed: #9017, #9173, #7961, #10524, #8566, #11142. Updates Haddock submodule.
* Error message wibbles from out-of-scope changesSimon Peyton Jones2015-06-261-2/+3
| | | | | | The patch "Treat out-of-scope variables as holes" makes lots of error messages change a bit. This patch has all the change.
* Use U+2018 instead of U+201B quote mark in compiler messagesHerbert Valerio Riedel2014-02-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | This matches GCC's choice of Unicode quotation marks (i.e. U+2018 and U+2019) and therefore looks more familiar on the console. This addresses #2507. Signed-off-by: Herbert Valerio Riedel <hvr@gnu.org>
