Hi, trying to adapt the zipN-example in the paper "Template Meta-programming for Haskell" by Sheard and Peyton Jones to Language.Haskell.THSyntax I found that quasi-quotation for patterns does not seem to work with ghci-6.0, e.g., the following results in "Parse error in pattern":
pcons x xs = [p| $x : $xs |] Using a user defined data-type data List a = Nil | Cons a (List a) the following works pcons x xs = Pcon "Cons" [x,xs] but I don't want to use a new data type. Trying to use the standard list representation by pcons x xs = Pcon "(:)" [x,xs] I got the error message Data constructor not in scope: `(:)' tcLookupDataCon: `(:)' is not in scope Does anyone know a workaround? -- Christoph _______________________________________________ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
