#12091: 'Variable not in scope" when using GHCi with `-fobject-code` -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: thomie | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: Component: GHCi | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: #7253 Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Since b98ff3ccb14e36145404f075349c8689762a2913 was landed (#7253), you don't need `let` to define stuff in GHCi: {{{ $ ghci Prelude> x = 3 Prelude> x 3 }}} But when using `-fobject-code`, this results in an error: {{{ $ ghci -fobject-code Prelude> x = 3 Prelude> x <interactive>:2:1: error: Variable not in scope: x }}} Very strange. CC @roshats, who implemented this feature, but the bug is probably in some part of the code he didn't touch. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12091 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
