Would be fine with me. | -----Original Message----- | From: libraries-admin@haskell.org [mailto:libraries-admin@haskell.org] On Behalf Of Ross Paterson | Sent: 05 September 2003 11:08 | To: libraries@haskell.org | Subject: RealWorld | | Now that RealWorld, formerly an implementation trick inside GHC, has | become part of the public interface: | | stToIO :: ST RealWorld a -> IO a | | (to make stToIO sound), I think it needs a better name. The IO monad | does not in fact give you exclusive access to the world, but to a | region of the heap separate from those used by invocations of runST. | (That's not all IO does, of course, but it's the relevant part for | stToIO.) I propose IORegion. | _______________________________________________ | Libraries mailing list | Libraries@haskell.org | http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/libraries
