#4027: Fix documentation for forkProcess
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: golubovsky | Owner:
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Documentation
Version: 6.12.2 | Keywords:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Testcase:
Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: Documentation bug
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Since forkProcess is disabled when number of cores to use is greater than
1, please reflect this in the documentation by replacing:
forkProcess comes with a giant warning
with
forkProcess is not supported by GHC runtime in the multicore setting (+RTS
-N<n> greater than 1 on command line or otherwise detected)
The line "Using forkProcess in order to do executeFile is likely to work.
Anything else: you're on your own. " does not seem very correct either. I
think it could be removed.
