#5218: Add unpackCStringLen# to create Strings from string literals -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: tibbe | Owner: thoughtpolice Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.0.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: Runtime | Unknown/Multiple performance bug | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #5877 #10064 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by jscholl): It seems to work. I added a pass before generating byte-code which transforms the unboxed tuples and now ghci works again. I am validating right now, but stage2 was working, so this should pass, too. So to let you review my changes, I have to ask: Should I include changes made to submodules or just include the changes to GHC? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5218#comment:49 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
