I asked this on stackoverflow first
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44958114/why-these-type-family-
instances-conflicting
I'm using GHC-8.0.1. This code (requires singletons lib):
{{{#!hs
{-# LANGUAGE TypeFamilies #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeOperators #-}
{-# LANGUAGE TypeInType #-}
module Bug where
import Data.Kind
import Data.Singletons
type family MkCtx (kx :: Type) (kc :: Type) (c :: kc) (x :: kx) ::
Constraint
type instance MkCtx kx (kx ~> Constraint) c x = Apply c x
type instance MkCtx kx (kx -> Constraint) c x = c x
}}}
with the message:
{{{
Conflicting family instance declarations:
forall kx (x :: kx) (c :: kx ~> Constraint).
MkCtx kx (kx ~> Constraint) c x = Apply c x
forall kx (x :: kx) (c :: kx -> Constraint).
MkCtx kx (kx -> Constraint) c x = c x
}}}
Why GHC considers these instances conflicting? I don't see how they
overlap.
