Re: initIface* usage in plugins
Hi Ben, Yes, I have a solution. For reference, I was unaware that method instances are named with local variables in expression ASTs, while instances and other top-level bindings are - so the solution is to add those Ids to the environment before loading the expression, which isn’t necessary for other top-level bindings that are sourced from the CgGuts cg_binds.

initIface* usage in plugins
Hi, I'm trying to use initIfaceLoad and initIfaceLcl to lookup core `Name`s within a plugin. My understanding is that functions such as `lookupIfaceTop` are used for this, but I'm running into an issue that I suspect is caused by some `Name`s being inappropriate for this function, so they fail with the error `Iface id out of scope: ...`. Is there a robust way to select which `Name` lookup function to use based on a core binding/expression? Thanks, Josh ___ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs
