#12618: Add saturated constructor applications to Core -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: simonpj | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by nomeata): I guess I did get a bit overly excited, on the way back from ICFP. I moved all my comments about generalizing this to arbitrary applications in an transparent way to #12626. But I still wonder what’s so special about data constructors, and why whatever works for data constructors does not work in general. I skimmed the paper, and will read it more carefully again now. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12618#comment:19 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
