That wouldn't help, actually, it doesn't export the type either, as the sources revealed. > > Your suggestion #2 : Unfortunately, the type isn't exported, as it seems : > > The doc says : > > *This module provides a MySQL driver for the HDBC database interface. > To use it, invoke the 'connectMySQL' method to create an > @Database.HDBC.IConnection@ that you can use to interact with a MySQL > database.

Since the type is not exported, you can't use it in type signatures. You have two options: a) omit the type signature :( b) wrap it in a ConnWrapper: connecter :: IO ConnWrapper connecter = ConnWrapper `fmap` connectMySQL mysqlInfo and use it via withWConn c) maybe there's another option I didn't see > I looked at Connection.hsc from the library and the Connection type defined > there isn't exported. > > For now, I've disabled that type of warnings. > > Thanks, > > David. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
