#9832: Get rid of PERL dependency of `ghc-split` ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: hvr | Owner: Phyx- Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Driver | Version: Resolution: | Keywords: perl Operating System: Windows | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #8405 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment (by dobenour): If rewritten in Haskell, it would be ''very'' easy to run `ghc-split` in- process – just run it in a separate Haskell thread, and send data to it over a pipe or channel. That should solve the binary size worries. In fact, the LLVM mangler could easily be made to work this way. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9832#comment:22 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
