#14090: Static pointers are not being registered under certain conditions -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mnislaih | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.2.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D3843 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by simonpj): OK. But for now I'm arguing ''not'' to adopt Phab:D3843 because, as I argue in comment:13, it smells to much like piling a sticking plaster on top of a sticking plaster. If there's a need, let's stand back and address it. Meanwhile, * Documenting what we have would be extremely helpful. * Perhaps we should add a note to `staticPtrKeys` to say that it's an experimental/unstable feature. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14090#comment:15 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
