#11035: Add implicit call-stacks to partial functions in base -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gridaphobe | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 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 gridaphobe): Possibly, I admit I'm not super familiar with the DWARF work. My main concern would be that the DWARF stack trace will expose haskell's lazy evaluation just like the cost-centre traces do. I find these difficult to debug because they jump all over the place as values are demanded. That might be useful for performance debugging, but for debugging a crash I just want to know '''where''' things were called, not what sequence of "demandings" led me to the crash. In other words, I want a trace based on the static call graph, which is what the implicit call-stacks provide. I hope that makes sense. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11035#comment:4 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
