#12532: Remove sum and tuple names from knownKeyNames -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- As noted in ticket:12415#comment:5 there are a large number of names inhabiting `knownKeyNames` and therefore the original name cache due to tuples and sums. It shouldn't be so hard to remove these and handle them in an ad-hoc manner: * original name cache lookups (e.g. finding out the `Name` associated with an `OccName`) can been handled by parsing the `OccName`'s string * looking up the `Name` associated with a `Unique` (which is needed in `BinIface` during interface file deserialization) can be done with a set of static functions. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12532 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
