#11238: Redesign the dynamic linking on ELF systems -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: trommler | Owner: trommler Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Runtime | Version: 7.10.3 System (Linker) | Keywords: | Operating System: Linux Architecture: | Type of failure: Other Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- This ticket is to follow up on my comment on #11042. Let's give dynamic linking on ELF systems a second chance. I propose the following steps: 1. Collect required features 1. Write up and discuss and agree on a specification 1. Create regression tests for all features 1. Design and implement a new dynamic linker for GHCi 1. (optional) Make it work on Mac OS X too -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11238 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
