#8684: hWaitForInput cannot be interrupted by async exceptions on unix -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Core Libraries | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D42 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by bgamari): * status: patch => new * owner: snoyberg => (none) Comment: Sorry, it looks like I was mistaken; this is in fact not fixed. The `timeout` does not, in fact, interrupt the `hWaitForInput`. It looks like Phab:D42 was never actually finished. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8684#comment:12 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
