#7653: incorrect handling of StackOverflow exception in the event manager --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Reporter: nus | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: libraries/base Version: 7.7 | Keywords: Os: Linux | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: Runtime crash | Blockedby: Blocking: | Related: --------------------------+------------------------------------------------- Comment(by nus): Another part of the problem is that we really shouldn't be trying to operate on an event manager if it's in the `Finished` or `Dying` states. A proper fix would require changing the API to reflect that in the return type of the operations using `wakeManager`. Is it worth the trouble? -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/7653#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
