would --dynamic-too work too?

Hi Carter,

Someone figured it out on #ghc. It seems we need to compile with -dynamic when having TH code now (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8180)

About a snippet, I working on that ticket (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7021) so it's based on the given sample:

-- Tuple.hs

{-# LANGUAGE ConstraintKinds, TemplateHaskell #-}

module Tuple where

import Language.Haskell.TH

type IOable a = (Show a, Read a)

foo :: IOable a => a

foo = undefined

test :: Q Exp

test = do

    Just fooName <- lookupValueName "foo"

    info         <- reify fooName

    runIO $ print info

    [| \_ -> 0 |]

--

-- Main.hs

{-# LANGUAGE TemplateHaskell #-}

module Main where

import Tuple

func :: a -> Int

func = $(test)

main :: IO ()

main = print "hello"

Did you build ghc with both static and dynamic libs? Starting in 7.7/HEAD, ghci uses Dylib versions of libraries, and thus TH does too.  What OS and architecture is this, and what commit is your ghc build from?

Last but most importantly, if you don't share the code, we can't really help isolate the problem.

Hi,

Oddly I can't compile code using TH with GHC HEAD. Here's what I get:

cannot find normal object file ‛./Tuple.dyn_o’

    while linking an interpreted expression

I'm currently working on a issue so I compile the code with ghc-stage2 for convenience.

I found an old ticket related to my problem (https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8443) but adding -XTemplateHaskell didn't work out.

The code compiles with ghc 7.6.3.

Here's my setup: Archlinux (3.12.6-1)

Any suggestions ?
