#835: Expose less type/class info in an interface file, to reduce recompilation -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: _|_ Component: Compiler | Version: 6.4.2 Resolution: wontfix | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Testcase: | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: -------------------------------+-------------------------------------------- Comment(by simonpj): There is a long saga here. For quite while we ''did'' try to avoid exporting the consructors of a data type whose representation did not need to leak; but I finally gave up the battle in Dec 2012: {{{ commit 9a20e540754fc2af74c2e7392f2786a81d8d5f11 Author: Simon Peyton Jones <simonpj(a)microsoft.com> Date: Thu Dec 6 16:03:16 2012 +0000 Stop attempting to "trim" data types in interface files Without -O, we previously tried to make interface files smaller by not including the data constructors of data types. But there are a lot of exceptions, notably when Template Haskell is involved or, more recently, DataKinds. However Trac #7445 shows that even without TemplateHaskell, using the Data class and invoking Language.Haskell.TH.Quote.dataToExpQ is enough to require us to expose the data constructors. So I've given up on this "optimisation" -- it's probably not important anyway. Now I'm simply not attempting to trim off the data constructors. The gain in simplicity is worth the modest cost in interface file growth, which is limited to the bits reqd to describe those data constructors. }}} So yes, wontfix. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/835#comment:9> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
