|
|
| Well, I think we all know the answer to this one, namely
| {-# NOINLINE [name] #-}
| This is, after all, what GHC does, and what several of the
| files in ghc/fptools do.
|
| Only slight problem is that according to the Haskell 98
| report, including Simon Peyton Jones' revised draft, you
| should use:
| {-# notInline [name] #-}
| Most of the time in fptools/hslibs (which I have from
| GHC), NOINLINE is used, but in one case notInline is used.
|
| Of course one of the delights of pragmas is that the
| "pragma should be ignored if an implementation is not prepared to
| handle it.". So if you guess wrong, you may never know,
| until you get a mysterious bug from GHC inlining a call to
| create a global variable via unsafePerformIO. Aren't pragmas
| wonderful?
|
| Would someone tell me which we are supposed to use? Or
| should I use both "NOINLINE" and "notInline", just to be on
| the safe side?
