#11078: Access to module renaming with reifyModule, in TemplateHaskell -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: cipher1024 | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Template Haskell | 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 osa1): I don't have any progress yet but I just wanted to say that passing `HsModule`(or some fields of it) around may not be very bad, and GHC is already doing similar things. For example, `DataCon` has a `[HsSrcBang]` field which is carried around until Cmm(or maybe even backend code generation) stage I think. `HsSrcBang` is this: {{{#!haskell data HsSrcBang = HsSrcBang (Maybe SourceText) SrcUnpackedness SrcStrictness }}} Some(maybe all) parts of this are coming from the parser. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11078#comment:18 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
