GHC builder: out of memory from ghc during make

2014-04-28 Thread Alain O'Dea
I am trying to get GHC builder-clients running for x86 and x86_64 GHC on SmartOS. I have been trying to get to the bottom of this memory issue and have had no luck. I've set it aside for the past couple of days to try to get a clear head to attack it afresh tonight. The three latest builds die w

Hello, I added a paragraph about my work to integrate an SMT solver with the constraint solver. As far as I know, the work on 'data kinds' is stalled at the moment in part due to lack of time, but also because we got a prototype working, but then there were doubts if we'd taken the right approach

Hello all, I hate to pester so late, but this completely slipped my mind *twice* so I'm afraid I have to! The HCAR entry deadling is rapidly approaching (~May 1st), and before I send off what we have to Mihai, I'd like everyone to pitch in as much as possible. I've already gone ahead and filled

In principle I think it's a pity to lose External Core. It provides an interface to GHC that is based on the simplest possibly connector (a text file), and allows GHC's front end or back end to be used by other systems written in different languages. However, as you say, it has received no lov

I believe sync-all pull is supposed to automatically do a submodule update. If it doesn't then that's a bug - Simon please create a ticket. Cheers, Simon On 24/04/2014 09:36, Johan Tibell wrote: I believe you need to run `git submodule update`. The orf branch was likely set to use a different
