#9718: Avoid TidyPgm predicting what CorePrep will do -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: CodeGen, CAFs Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by osa1): I found the problem with dynamic interface files that I mention in comment:31. Normally when I run these: {{{ $ ghc-stage1 --show-iface libraries/ghc-prim/dist- install/build/GHC/Types.hi $ ghc-stage1 --show-iface libraries/ghc-prim/dist- install/build/GHC/Types.dyn_hi }}} The first command should show `Wanted: [] Got: []` in `Ways` section, the second should show `Wanted: [] Got: [dyn]`, but with my code both show `Got [dyn]`. So it seems like I'm generating a dyn iface file instead of a normal iface file. This seems to be related with how the `-dynamic-too` flag is implemented (it runs the pipeline multiple times, but I think the repeated parts of the pipeline does not include the code generator). -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9718#comment:38 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
