#15535: Expose the StableName constructor -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.8.1 Component: Core Libraries | Version: 8.4.3 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:D5078 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by osa1): Out of curiosity, how do you coerce a `StableName` to a `StableName#`? `StableName` is a `data` so you'd have to first coerce it to constructor with one non-pointer field that is as large as a `StableName#`, and then read that field. Sounds tricky ... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15535#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
