#8736: GHCi doesn't load .dyn_o files appropriately -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: | Owner: thoughtpolice thoughtpolice | Status: new Type: bug | Milestone: 7.8.4 Priority: high | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: #9282 None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by int-e): I believe that this also affects users of 'cabal repl', because cabal- install uses -dynamic-too for compiling. So after 'cabal build', 'cabal repl' will still recompile all modules of a package as bytecode. With ghc-7.6.3 (and vanilla objects), 'cabal repl' would load the compiled object files. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8736#comment:12 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
