#8397: reify annotations in TH -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Reporter: errge | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: fixed | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) Type of failure: | Blocked By: None/Unknown | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: 7867 | -------------------------------+------------------------------------------- Comment (by errge): Thank you Simon for your criticism. Sorry for the spam in the recent weeks. To be fair, at least half of it is not related at all to TH. Simply: now I "opened" GHC and constantly find little stuff here and there that I'm happy to work on. The only relationship that some of my bugs have to TH is that before implementing the TH features I was always too afraid to try to patch GHC. Nevertheless, I've did the following to improve my communication right now: - I cleaned up my bugs: - properly tagged all of them for target release (most of them for 7.10.1), - properly set up component, so you can filter for TH, - I created the http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/TemplateHaskell/Annotations wikipage 1.5 weeks ago to provide exactly the info that you are asking for, I'll now go and actualize it and more clearly mark the urgent and nice-to- haves. To get an overview about all of my bugs, you can use this query: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/query?status=new&status=patch&reporter=errge&or&status=new&status=patch&cc=~gergely&group=status&col=id&col=summary&col=reporter&col=status&col=owner&col=type&col=priority&col=milestone&col=component&col=difficulty&order=priority '''The only one that I need to be merged for my use-case to work at all with 7.8.1 is #1480. In that one, I only add to the TH API, so it won't break anyone and I implement a feature that is meaningful to have anyways. If you only have time to review one more, please review that one. That is the only urgent one.''' And thanks for not giving up on this one in spite of the amount of requests that come from me. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8397#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
