#15790: String literals are not escaped in -ddump-splices -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: michalrus | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.6.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #4436 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by RyanGlScott): * related: => #4436 Comment: Hah. It actually used to be the case that `\n` characters //were// escaped in `-ddump-splices`. However, someone specifically requested to change that to the current behavior (printing `\n` as newlines) in #4436. I'm not sure which behavior is better, given that separate groups of people want different things here. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/15790#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
