[Question] Should jhc support Cabal? Or should use only yaml?

Hi John. Should jhc support Cabal? Or should use only yaml? Some Haskell packages are needed poring to jhc/Ajhc for my usage. I think jhc support yaml format to compile Haskell libraries. But Cabal source code has signs that tried to support jhc. $ git clone git://github.com/haskell/cabal.git $ cd cabal $ git grep -i jhc | wc -l 69 Is it good idea that support Cabal with jhc/Ajhc? Should jhc use only yaml? I would like to follow upstream's concept. Best regards, -- Kiwamu Okabe

I think good, because I maintain jhs as Debian package already. http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/jhc_0.8.0~darcs20120314-1.html Maintaining Ajhc Debian package is bad idea, if jhc has the most functions had by Ajhc. How about below policy between jhc and Ajhc. 1. Jhc and Ajhc share same command name "jhc". 2. Jhc controls major version number. Example, jhc controls X, Y and Z in version "X.Y.Z". 3. Ajhc controls minor version number. Example, Ajhc controls only Q in version "X.Y.Z.Q". 4. Ajhc show below message with --version option. (A)jhc 0.8.0.1 (80aa12fb9b57622bba2f0e911d7ebc0c04ddb662) compiled by ghc-7.4 on a x86_64 running linux The policy is to keep minimum change between jhc and Ajhc. And I think that Ajhc having own command name confuses jhc user. Best regards, -- Kiwamu Okabe

[patch] New RTS for tiny CPU
by Kiwamu Okabe 16 Mar '13

16 Mar '13

Hi John. I think the patch is useful to run Haskell code on tiny CPU and small memory size. Github link is below. https://github.com/ajhc/ajhc/commit/3167551530b0576cf1f42f928865868ce9aa0b50 The changes are... 1. Control BLOCK_SIZE and MEGABLOCK_SIZE from Makefile. 2. Do not allocate MEGABLOCK dynamically. 3. Set function pointer's bit0 for Cortex-M3. http://communities.mentor.com/community/cs/archives/arm-gnu/msg01904.html 4. Naive GC flag to run GC when no blocks. 5. Control stack_grow size. Example of usage is found at https://github.com/ajhc/demo-cortex-m3. Best regards, -- Kiwamu Okabe
