Put simply
What do people think about being able to access functions from other modules
without
importing the module.
i.e. Rather than
---------------Start-------------
import Foo
-- call f
callFoof x = f x
--------------End----------------
We can do
---------------Start-------------
callFoof x =
case (getFunction "Foo.f" (bot::Int -> Int) ) of
(Just f) -> f x
(nothing) -> error "Foo not linked in"
---------------End---------------

Hi Chris. The problem is likely to be that (like me) many people
don't know what you mean by "reflection" -- I couldn't make it
out from your message. [I know what reflection means in set
theory, but (pardon my ignorance) I haven't heard of it in FP.]
Maybe you could post a URL for a paper which explains this
concept well?
Regards,
Peter
