The profiling crashes on the win32 side are due to a mangler problem, causing all kinds of interesting side effects at run-time. I've got a fix in the works, but before committing I want to spend some more time understanding why 'gcc' insist on laying out (and aligning) the profiling-related data structures the way it does. --sigbjorn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike Thomas" <miketh@brisbane.paradigmgeo.com> To: "Hal Daume III" <hdaume@ISI.EDU>; "GHC Users Mailing List" <glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org> Sent: Thursday, July 25, 2002 16:32 Subject: Re: bug with profiling things with "strange" filename
Hi Hal.
5.04 profiled executables (-prof -auto-all) on Windows just crash on takeoff with or without a dot in their name (ie even without a .exe extension). This is substantially different to the behaviour of HEAD a few days before release of 5.04, which only crashed when fed heap profiling arguments.
Cheers
