#14574: Template Haskell Uniq ~ Int leads to external interpreter cross compilation trouble -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: luite | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by luite): I now have a patch that validates on `ghc-8.4` and `master`. Changing it to `type Uniq = Integer` turned out to be easiest because GHC doesn't know the data constructor for `Int64`. And I think `Integer` is actually more appropriate here. Some of the other types in the TH library are still machine sized, like operator precedence, but I think those don't lead to many problems in practice, since they tend to be user supplied. I still need to do a bit more testing with GHCJS to make sure that I haven't missed anything. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14574#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
