olaf: Wed Feb 6 13:28:54 CET 2002 Update of /usr/src/master/nhc/src/compiler98 In directory hinken:/tmp/cvs-serv25435/src/compiler98 Modified Files: Extra.hs Syntax.hs SyntaxPos.hs TraceTrans.hs Log Message: Implemented labelled fields fully. Data type definition, use of labels as selectors, construction and update with fields are now handled by hat-trans. Because there is no appropriate structure in the Hat trace file format, construction is encoded as normal construction of a data constructor and update is encoded as a "case". The latter can lead to weird expressions in hat-trail (e.g. "f main |> case C True undefined undefined"; "f (case C True undefined) undefined" would be clearer). Field labels only appear as selector functions in the trace. Selection and update can cause runtime errors if a field label is not present. To allow a simpler transformation, these runtime errors are not caught. A general solution to runtime errors is needed anyway.
