Re: Plan for GHC 9.2

I hope ticket #19157 will make it in the GHC 9.2 release. In the GHCi debugger it adds the possibility to set ignore counts to breakpoints. The next times the break point is reached the program's execution does not stop. This feature is available in nearly every debugger, but until now not yet in

Hadrian: Error "cannot find -lHSrts-1.0_thr_l" when linking ghc executable.

Hi there! I have two GHC trees. One is called ghcdebug and is a little bit outdated (16. September 2020). In this tree, I can work normally: Change code, compile and run the resulting GHC compiler. The second tree is up-to-date! Compiling works fine, however the linker steps for the ghc executab

Re: Looking for a recent error reporting change

Hi Chris, Maybe you want to look at MR 1806 (https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc/- /merge_requests/1806). There I touched the `check is main exported` stuff. There is also MR !1885 for GHC 8.6.2 (https://gitlab.haskell.org /ghc/ghc/-/merge_requests/1885). However this got never merged! Regards  Rola

Re: Getting Rewrite Rules from ModGuts

Hi Bill, You may try to set the DynFlag Opt_IgnoreInterfacePragmas to False. If set to True,, which is the default, GHC doesn't load a lot of optimization stuff. Good luck and kind regards Roland Am Donnerstag, den 11.04.2019, 23:02 -0400 schrieb Bill Hallahan: > Hi, > > I'm trying to use the G

Unable to build a profiled version of GHC Head

Trac -> Gitlab migration: A little issue with assignees

After some days off, I returned to my work on GHC. I looked up my tickets in Gitlab with a search on assignee=RolandSenn [1].  The system returned a list of 8 open tickets.  Two of them are interesting: #14025 and #15336. Once upon a time I assigned them to me, worked on them, but unfortunately the

How to teach Hadrian not to build ghctags and haddock

I switched to Hadrian. Normally I hack somewhere in the compiler. So I use "hadrian/build.sh --flavour=devel2 --freeze1" to quickly rebuild GHC after some little changes to the code. It normally builds - library 'ghc' (Stage1, way v) - program 'ghctags' (Stage1) - program 'ghc-bin' (Stage1)

Hi Tamar, I looked into the testcases 'plugins09', 'plugins10' and 'plugins11' and found the following: GHC-Windows uses BufferMode 'BlockBuffering Nothing', however, GHC-Linux uses 'LineBuffering'. If I add an 'import System.IO' and the line 'liftIO $ hSetBuffering stdout LineBuffer' as first line

Hi, I'm the author of test T14452. This is test #2 in the list of failing tests of Simon. I looked into it and found, indeed, this test is broken under Windows. Under Windows we get quotes around the -O3 ("-O3") but not under Linux.  I'll reopen Trac ticket #14452 and prepare a patch with an improv
