#5470: The DPH library needs to support PData and PRepr instances for more than
6-tuples
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Reporter: chak | Owner: benl
Type: bug | Status: new
Priority: normal | Component: Data Parallel Haskell
Version: 7.3 | Keywords:
Testcase: | Blockedby:
Os: Unknown/Multiple | Blocking:
Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Failure: Compile-time crash
---------------------------------+------------------------------------------
Currently, `Data.Array.Parallel.PArray.PDataInstances` only generates
tuple instances up to 6-tuple. This is not sufficient as these instances
are used for environments of closures by the vectoriser — i.e., once a
closures has more than 6 free variables, the compiler fails with
`VectMonad.lookupFamInst: not found`.
To fix this in the DPH library, `vector` needs support for `zip` and
`unzip` beyond 6-tuples as well.
