Error message when hitting space bar

[mikail-khan]

I'm running GNU Emacs version 24.5.1 and the following version of haskell-mode:

haskell-mode 20160330.629 installed A Haskell editing mode

I'm getting the following error when hitting the space bar in the editor:

Symbol's function definition is void: haskell-mode-contextual-space

[fosskers]

They removed that function, see #1182 .

The error goes away if you remove the binding to SPC in your .emacs.

[mikail-khan]

Cool - I removed it from my .emacs - all is good again. Cheers.

[fosskers]

Mind you, pressing SPC after import no longer opens up the import completor. That completion hasn't worked for me for a while, so I guess there's no harm done. Do you know a good alternative for import completion?

[geraldus]

@fosskers you don't use interactive Haskell mode, do you?

[fosskers]

As far as I know I do. My emacs bottom bar says (Haskell Interactive FlyC Helm), and I have (add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook 'interactive-haskell-mode) in my .emacs.

[geraldus]

In this case if you will load your file into REPL C-c C-l Emacs will be able to autocomplete module name. This is not the same as contextual menu, but very close to that. I'm using company mode for completion and have stylish haskell enabled, I type import then company mode helps me with module names and finally stylish haskell aligns them.

[fosskers]

No, it doesn't do that anymore, even with a REPL open in emacs (that is my usual workflow). Maybe I'll try company.

[fosskers]

...my god, it's amazing. How haven't I been using this the whole time?

Hmm, it is even documented with beautiful animated gifs: http://haskell.github.io/haskell-mode/manual/latest/Editing-Haskell-Code.html#Completion-support
