#9163: Ptr should have a phantom role -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by rwbarton): Replying to [comment:11 goldfire]:
Helpful comments, rwbarton. Is the same true for `FunPtr`? I would assume so. My knee-jerk reaction is "not sure"; I am thinking that while the normal way to consume a `Ptr` is to `peek` and `poke` it, the normal way to consume a `FunPtr` is with a `foreign import ccall "dynamic"` wrapper, and I'm not sure they are obviously analogous situations.
