#5987: Too many symbols in ghc package DLL -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: igloo | Owner: thoughtpolice Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.10.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.5 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: 3658 | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by carter): is there some way we could do a hack to do split DLLs and allow cycles? (would probably mean some sort of indirect jump penalty in one direction of the cycle). One extreme would be to use some sort of graph clustering software tool like METIS http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/metis/metis/overview do .hi files have enough information to sort out the directed graph of imports exports? I'd be happy to help do some graph clustering experimentation on the object files (that piece isn't windows specific, so i could hack it out on my current machine) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5987#comment:30 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
