#9405: Ticky results should be displayed even during interrupts (Ctrl-c) -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: thoughtpolice | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.2 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Blocked By: | None/Unknown Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- After talking with Simon & Simon today, we discussed ticky profiling, and it dawned on us that ticky probably isn't reported when the program is interrupted via the user. But it should be! The motivating case is when you're dealing with an infinite loop and you want to find the binding that has a high entry count (i.e. it's the looping body). But the only way to move forward is to interrupt it, which doesn't spit out the reports. Fixing this would make ticky much more useful in such cases. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9405 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
