#11035: Add implicit call-stacks to partial functions in base -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gridaphobe | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: | Keywords: 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 gridaphobe): Replying to [comment:15 simonmar]:
We could have a non-callstack version of error, and use that from `minimumBy` and other functions in base that call `error`?
Yes, that's the idea. We could even add a one-off version of Richard's RULE to optimize away the callstacks for `error` in distributed code, which I think would make Joachim happier. I'm just wondering if the cosmetic issue is enough to warrant the extra (probably small) maintenance burden. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11035#comment:16 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
