[Haskell-cafe] Simple hash table creation

[michael rice]

I'm trying to create a hash table. Yeah, I know, don't use hash tables, but I need to create something I'm familiar with, not something I've never worked with before. What's wrong with this code?

Michael

====================

import Prelude hiding (lookup)
import Data.HashTable

data MyHashTable = HashTable String Int

dummy:: String -> Int
dummy s = 7

ht = MyHashTable.new (==) dummy

====================
