#8039: RTS linker: unloadObj() does not actually unload the code -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: simonmar | Owner: simonmar Type: task | Status: new Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Runtime System | Version: 7.6.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by igloo): Replying to [comment:5 simonmar]:

Anyway, for the application I need this for, we're using the RTS linker

and not shared libraries. So please don't make the RTS linker go away :-) My plan was to leave it in 7.8, but not used by default, and then to remove it from HEAD shortly after 7.8.1 is released. The goal is to stop maintaining the ghci linker, after all! -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8039#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
