#14005: Explore moving from pretty to prettyprinter -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.4.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 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:D3650 Wiki Page: | wiki:PrettyErrors | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): The problem appears to be the encoding of the string literal itself in the object code. Previously we would find this, {{{ starts here 0531220 - b o o t - 8 . 3 \0 300 200 g h c p 0531240 k g 300 200 \0 d b M o d u l e U n i ^ ends here }}} Now we find this, {{{ starts here 0534520 o o t - 8 . 3 \0 303 200 200 g h c p k 0534540 g 303 200 200 \0 d b M o d u l e U n i ^ ends here }}} -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14005#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
