Hi there, > but GHC complains: > > Illegal instance declaration for `Foo (Either b b)' > > (The instance type must be of form (T a b c) > > where T is not a synonym, and a,b,c are distinct type variables) > > In the instance declaration for `Foo (Either b b)'
unless I'm totally mistaken, your problem isn't the distinction thingy, but rather an error like supplying an Int for where you need (Int -> Int -> Int). That is, you're trying make (Either String String) an instance of Foo, (Either String String) already being a fully constructed type; Foo, on the other hand, seems to require a type constructor that is yet to parameterize over three more types (e.g. StateT).
