Template Haskell: cannot splice sections
{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}
works = 1 + 1
worksTH = $( [| 1 + 1 |] )
breaks = (1+) 1
breaksTH = $( [| (1+) 1 |] )Trying to load the above gives:
arst.hs:7:14:
A section must be enclosed in parentheses thus: (1 `GHC.Num.+`)The line it's complaining about is breaksTH's definition.
Marking as minor because it's easy to work around by simply not using sections.
