#8025: "During interactive linking, GHCi couldn't find the following symbol" typechecker error with TemplateHaskell involved -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: mojojojo | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (Type | Version: 7.6.3 checker) | Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: x86 Type of failure: Incorrect | Test Case: warning at compile-time | Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): Duog, your approach seems like a very interesting compromise that I had not considered. Great work! There is the question of which `HscTarget` we want to use here. Arguably `HscInterpreted` is more appropriate as it is faster to generate, faster to link, and doesn't unexpected leave object files lying around. However, it unfortunately lacks support for unboxed tuples and sums, which may break some (I suspect quite small) fraction of programs. It would be interesting to characterize the difference. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8025#comment:9 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
