In a way, it's analogous to the situation with garbage collection and closing file handles in finalizers; but the details are different and the unpredictable file closing comes from lazy evaluation rather than garbage collection.
Except that lazy evaluation can affect *when* the data becomes garbage! ;-) _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
