Can't find defaultTimeLocale in Data.Time.Format

According to the doc on Hackage, Data.Time.Format exposed defaultTimeLocal. However, when I try to use it, it doesn't exits.

When I look at the code, it doesn't seems to be exposed either (if I generate the doc from the source, I don't see this defaultTimeLocale). Is it because it needs to be compiled with some flags, or is the haddock on hackage just wrong.

Where can I get an instance for TimeLocale?

Update

I'm using time version 1.5.0.1 on OSX. The following code

import Data.Time.Format (defaultTimeLocale)

errors with 

Module ‘Data.Time.Format’ does not export ‘defaultTimeLocale’

Update

In fact I was using version 1.4.2 which doesn't have defaultTimeLocale installed. I'm upgrading to 1.5.0.1 ...

Update

I deleted my sandbox, rebuild everything. It's workin now.

Solution

  • For some reason, cabal wasn't using the version I thought it was (1.5) but (1.4) probably from the haskell platform. Uprading fixed the problem.
