Re: Static values language extension proposal

ablePtrs, etc). My approach is to solve this dynamically by exception handling. I can imagine that there is a sensible combination of RTS support with a suitable type class framework (Static, for one), but lazy evaluation, especially lazy I/O

RE: ANNOUNCE: GHC version 6.12.1

one of the changes, but not the most fundamental). If you want to try examples from GpH publications, you will certainly have some problems. parallel-1.x versions containing the original definitions are on hackage as well and should work for experiments. Cheers Jost Berthold PS: Loading Contro

Adding (some) libraries to a GHC tree

Hi Neil, You can manually add any package which is listed in http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/DarcsRepositories by getting it (with darcs), directly into the /libraries subdirectory. When you later use darcs-all, the added library will be included when pulling new changes etc. I have adde

We have built GHC 6.2 for RedHat 9 in our department without problems (well... I checked out the sources approx. 2 weeks ago) using gcc-3.3.1 and a snapshot of ghc-6.1(20030829, rebuilt using binary ghc-6.1.20030803 and manually linking in a dummy __ctype_b). I only had problems because of the
