Warning on build regarding HTTP.stack

[kobussch]

When building Mux, the following warning is displayed:

WARNING: using HTTP.stack in module Mux conflicts with an existing identifier.

This can be fixed easily by changing the using HTTP statements (in 2 places) to using HTTP: HTTP

This looks a bit odd and I could not find this particular syntax in the documentation anywhere, but it works. What it does is to just make the module HTTP reachable within Mux and its included files, without actually bringing all the names exported by HTTP into the Mux scope. Among the exports is stack. Mux has its own declaration of stack, which is causing the conflict.

In Mux all references to HTTP internals are done with dot-syntax so it is not necessary to bring into Mux any of the HTTP exports. Only the namespace of the module HTTP is needed and this is what the suggested code achieves.

I can provide the necessary PR if the above change sounds acceptable

By "building Mux", I assume you mean loading Mux (Mux doesn't have a build step)?

But yes, that sounds fine to me! import HTTP will likely be what we should do to be idiomatic (it only brings in the module, but doesn't bring exports into scope).

Correct about loading. I actually experience the problem on loading another package which depends on Mux.

I will change my code to import HTTP as suggested. The PR will take a few days due to other commitments.
