*Even I find it hard to believe that it's finally here!* *I'm happy to announce the RC1 release of Haskell Platform 2014.2.0.0.* You can find builds for Windows (32bit and 64bit), Mac (64bit), as well as a source tarball, and a tag in the repo: - source tarball: haskell-platform-2014.2.0.0-R

Re: The haddock / clang problem revisited ... root cause found...

A patched bindist sounds like a good idea. I've just uploaded Cabal-1.18.1.4 so you should be good to go. ___ ghc-devs mailing list ghc-devs@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/ghc-devs

globalRegMaybe and ARM

Hello Simon, b0534f7 [1] and the subsequent reversion f0fcc41d7 touched `includes/CodeGen.Platform.hs`, the former removing a panic in the case of `globalRegMaybe` being undefined for a platform and replacing it with `Nothing`. Recently I've found that my ARM builds (with -fllvm) crash at this p

Re: The haddock / clang problem revisited ... root cause found...

After discussion on #ghc, my revised plan is that HP 2014.2.0.0 will include just Cabal-1.18.1.3. While the double-pre-processing is "wrong" on all oses, it only systems with clang as the compiler. For the Mac OS X build of HP 2014.2.0.0, I'll be basing it on a "patched" version of GHC 7.8.3 that

Early draft spec of Strict language pragma

Hi! I started a draft spec for the Strict language pragma we chatted about during our call a while ago. I made the big mistake of writing it much after the actual discussion, so I forgot most of the details. https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/StrictPragma Perhaps if you could ask questions th

Re: The haddock / clang problem revisited ... root cause found...

*Re.: Full details here: Root cause of haddock / clang failure * Iain Nicol had submmited a set of commits back in May which addressed the "double pre-process" issue with Haddock. No one had figured out the connection to this set of issues with c

Looking for list comprehensions use cases

Haskellers, recently I've been looking into the possibility of creating some new optimisations for GHC. These would be mostly aimed at list comprehensions. Here's where I need your help: 1. Do you have complex list comprehensions usage examples from real code? By complex I mean nested list c
