Does anyone know a clean solution to pass information between 2 executions of splicers.

$(splicer ....) -- first invocation gather and store some data .... $(splicer ...) -- second one use the data gathered above.

Just the other day I wrote such code; I'm not sure it qualifies as a `clean solution' as it was meant for a nefarious purpose.

e2 = runIO $ do varref <- newIORef undefined let put v = runIO $ do putStrLn "put" writeIORef varref v runQ [|$v + 1|] let get v = runIO $ do putStrLn "get" vold <- readIORef varref runQ [|$v + $vold|]

c1 <- runQ [|\x -> $(put [|x|]) + 1::Int|] c2 <- runQ [|\x -> $(get [|x|]) + 1::Int|] runQ $ [| ($(return c1),$(return c2)) |]

show_code cde = runQ cde >>= putStrLn . pprint te2 = show_code e2

One may even try to splice e2 at the top level (in a different module). The code does exchange data between two splicers -- one may argue, it exchanges too much data.
