#9351: add ability to version symbols .c for packages with C code -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: slyfox | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Milestone: Priority: normal | Version: 7.8.3 Component: Compiler | Keywords: backpack Resolution: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Blocked By: Type of failure: | Related Tickets: None/Unknown | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by hvr): Fwiw, I'd rather have a macro for the `.hs` part as well than have yet another FFI calling convention. (it'd be useful in other cases as well, to have the ability to uniformly transform the ABI-level C symbol name; e.g. for GMP, all official function names are prefixed by `__g` prefix at the ABI level) E.g. something like: {{{#!hs foreign import ccall C_PKG_NAME("a.h","get_something") :: IO Int }}} This will, however, require a better CPP than the current traditional CPP mode to work... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9351#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
