Hi,
The following program is accepted by GHC 7 with -XRank2Types:
class C a where
f :: a -> a
newtype R = R (forall a . C a => a)
instance C R where
f (R x) = R $ f x
main = return ()
jhc 0.8 gives the following error:
[1 of 1] Main (...............jhci: user error (
What: failure
Why: Signature too Weak: [] does not imply [Main.C Main.v11]
Where: on line 7 in j.hs
in the explicitly typed Instance at .iMain.f.Main.R (Main.R Main.6_x)
= Main.R Jhc.Basics.$ Main.f Main.6_x {- on line 7 -}
Compilation of module: Main)
Is this difference in behaviour intended, and how can I make something
like that compile?
