#10121: operational semantics is incomplete? -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: javran | Owner: goldfire Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Documentation | Version: 7.8.4 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by darchon): Yeah... those rules are the only ones I could think of and stay within the domain of the original small-step semantics of System FC. Another way to go about it is to add an explicit heap to the semantics, and put let- bindings to that heap, ala "a natural semantics for lazy evaluation". But then you'd have to update all the other rules also. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10121#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
