class - importing haskell module says "not in scope" -

i created tree structure in file called tree2.hs

module tree2 (  tree )  data tree = emptytree | node (tree a) (tree a) deriving (show)

then imported , tried use instance of class

import qualified tree2  class yesno   yesno :: -> bool  instance yesno (tree2.tree a)   yesno emptytree = false   yesno _ = true

but i'm getting error when loading in ghci:

not in scope: data constructor ‘emptytree’ failed, modules loaded: tree2.

anyone know why?

first,

module tree2 (  tree )

only exports tree data type, not constructors; should use

module tree2 (   tree(..) )

instead.

second, you're doing qualified import, need use tree2.emptytree instead of emptytree.
