#7689: Primitive bitwise operations on Int# -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: jstolarek | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: Compiler Version: 7.7 | Keywords: Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- During recent work I found a need for primitive bitwise operations that work on `Int#` type. Currently existing `and#`, `or#`, `not#` and `xor#` !PrimOps work on `Word#`, which requires writing explicit conversions using `int2Word#` and `word2Int#`. It would be most helpful to have equivalent `andI#`, `orI#`, `notI#` and `xorI#` !PrimOps. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7689 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
