Then how about my suggestion for selectively adding lexical scope to
breakpoints? I'd like to be able to say
:break <loc/name> {names}
and have GHCi make the necessary changes to keep {names} available
for inspection when it hits that breakpoint.
The only easy way to do that is to recompile the module that contains
the breakpoint. To do it without recompiling is about as hard as doing
what I suggested above, because it involves a similar mechanism (being
able to selectively retain the values of free variables).
sure, but GHCi recompiling the module maybe takes less than
a second, whereas going and modifying the source-code in an
editor takes orders of magnitude more time! Is there
something fundamentally wrong with recompiling an
interpreted module?
