#8524: GHC is inconsistent with the Haskell Report on which Unicode characters are allowed in string and character literals ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: oerjan | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: GHC rejects valid program Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: Difficulty: Unknown | Blocking: Blocked By: | Related Tickets: | ----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- GHC is inconsistent with the Haskell Report on which Unicode characters are allowed in string and character literals. (And I don't like either option, why leave out any characters in strings unnecessarily?) Examples from ghci 7.6.3 (also tested in lambdabot on irc): {{{ Prelude> "" -- Unicode char \8203, Format class. <interactive>:10:2: lexical error in string/character literal at character '\8203' Prelude> " " -- Unicode char \8202, Space class. "\8202" Prelude> "t\ \est" -- Unicode char \8202 in a string gap. <interactive>:14:4: lexical error in string/character literal at character '\8202' }}} My reading of http://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/haskellch2.html (section 2.2 and 2.6): * The report BNF token "graphic", which can be used in literals, includes indirectly many Unicode classes, but uniWhite is not one of them. Thus the only Unicode whitespace allowed to represent itself in literals is ASCII space. * Unicode formatting characters are not mentioned in the BNF that I can see, so are not allowed in literals. * String gaps are made out of the report BNF token whitespace, which ''does'' include uniWhite. Who wants what: || ||= GHC =||= Report =||= Me =|| || Format in string || No || No || Yes || || Space/uniWhite in string || Yes || No || Yes || || Space/uniWhite in string gap || No || Yes || Dunno || In short, GHC's behavior is buggy and/or annoying in two opposite ways: * It leaves out some Unicode characters as allowable in strings and character literals, presumably because the report says so. * It allows some characters the report says it ''shouldn't'', and refuses some characters the report says it ''should''. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8524> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#11180: A program writing to a read-only stdout should not succeed -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: thomie | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- In the shell, redirection of file descriptors can be read-only (<), write- only (>), or read-write (<>). A program trying to write to stdout, while stdout is redirected read-only, currently exits with exit code 0. {{{ $ cat hello.hs main = print "hello world" $ ghc hello.hs ... $ ./hello 1< /dev/null; echo Exit status: $? Exit status: 0 }}} This should however show some error message, and return some non-zero error message, because the write never succeeds. Note that this example is different from `./hello 1> /dev/null`, which rightfully does succeed. As suggested by this [http://roscidus.com/blog/blog/2013/06/09/choosing-a -python-replacement-for-0install/ blog post]: > "If you’re not sure why this is important, imagine the command is `dump-database > backup` and the filesystem is full." Supposedly OCaml gets this right. For reference, from my bash man page: > *Redirecting Input* > > Redirection of input causes the file whose name results from the expansion of word to be opened for reading on file descriptor n, or the standard input (file descriptor 0) if n is not specified. > > The general format for redirecting input is: > > [n]<word -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11180> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

These references are not checked by checkUnload before unloading the object. Then, when the profiling report is printed at the end of the program, a segfault occurs. Plan: 1. Add a test case for this. 2. Modify checkUnload to prevent objects from being unloaded if the CCS tree points to them. 3. Modify generateCCSReport to prune the CCS tree after a report is printed. 4. Expose some way to generate a report on demand, so long-running programs don't keep every object loaded forever. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11776> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
