#910: --make should have a -j flag for parallel building -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: igloo | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: _|_ Component: Compiler | Version: 6.4.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: N/A | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by rrnewton): Ah, good, it sounds like you've handled exceptions carefully. I missed the "try" on line 133 in my first cursory look. https://github.com/parcs/ghc/blob/0aaeb70aa3291cf2ab90af150c3790cf4981db2a/c... I was expecting something right after the fork. But it looks like the only code that happens outside of that "try" is the newIORef, putMVar, and writeLogQueue... reasonably safe. Regarding printing, I guess ErrUtils.errorMsg is thread-safe? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/910#comment:26 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
