Re: [GHC] #5942: implement POSIX confstr() in System/Posix/Unistd.hsc
#5942: implement POSIX confstr() in System/Posix/Unistd.hsc ---+ Reporter: clint | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal| Milestone: 7.6.1 Component: libraries/unix|Version: 7.4.1 Resolution:| Keywords: confstr Os: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 hour) Testcase:| Blockedby: Blocking:|Related: ---+ Comment(by simonmar): In general it's not OK to have platform-conditional APIs in the `unix` package. Typically a missing function will throw an exception (e.g. `getSlaveTerminalName`), or fall back to a portable version (e.g. `unsetEnv`). Where there are constants or symbols that need to be conditional, we use a `.Exts` module (see e.g. `System.Posix.Signals.Exts`). -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5942#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler ___ Glasgow-haskell-bugs mailing list Glasgow-haskell-bugs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-bugs
