Complete and decidable type inference for GADTs

GADTs have proven to be an invaluable language extension, a.o. for ensuring data invariants and program correctness. Unfortu-nately, they pose a tough problem for type inference: we lose the principal-type property, which is necessary for modular type infer-ence. We present a novel and simplified type inference approach for local type assumptions from GADT pattern matches. Our approach is complete and decidable, while more liberal than previous such approaches
