#8494: Warn if a pattern guard obviates all others -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: JohnWiegley | Status: new Type: | Milestone: feature request | Version: 7.6.3 Priority: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple normal | Type of failure: Incorrect warning at Component: | compile-time Compiler | Test Case: Keywords: | Blocking: Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: | Unknown | Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | -------------------------+------------------------------------------------- The following code, when compiled with `-Wall`, gives no warnings: {{{ module Main where main :: IO () main = print $ foo (10 :: Int) where foo x | True = (20 :: Int) | x == 10 = (30 :: Int) }}} I would expect that since the pattern guard `| True` obviates the following guards, that it would warn about unreachable code. There was a bug in my code today which I tracked down to a code transposition that would have been easily spotted with such a warning. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8494> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#9074: GHC 7.8.2's ghci does not track missing symbols when loading non-Haskell object files ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: massysett | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- I have a package that bundles in C library sources. I never had a problem with this when using GHC 7.6. In GHC 7.8, the order of the c-sources in the cabal file now matters. Sources must be listed earlier if they have symbols that subsequently loaded object files will need. If the c-sources are in the wrong order, when running "cabal repl" I get Loading object (static) dist/build/decnumber/src/decQuad.o ... ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened) (GHC version 7.8.2 for x86_64-unknown-linux): Loading temp shared object failed: /tmp/ghc14294_0/ghc14294_1.so: undefined symbol: DECSTICKYTAB Please report this as a GHC bug: http://www.haskell.org/ghc/reportabug When using the same code and cabal file with GHC 7.6, "cabal repl" works fine: GHCi loads each static object (regardless of ordering in the cabal file), links up the necessary symbols, and launches successfully.
