#9601: Make the rewrite rule system more powerful -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: spacekitteh | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Project (more | Type of failure: than a week) | None/Unknown Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- It would be amazing if the current RULES system could be upgraded to include various predicates, or even into a full-on strategic programming system. This would allow far far more optimisations to be possible, rather than the current conservative system where you have to make sure that the optimisations ALWAYS apply. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9601 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
