Re: Stepping through ghc

Hi Omar, You might want to narrow your scope to one part of GHC. For example, I mostly focused on the Run Time System to be able to conduct my master's thesis. Also, you might want to start off with a tiny goal, like to fix bug XYZ. Oh, and most important of all is the Commentary, which I

Re: How's the integration of DWARF support coming along?

Hi Johan! I haven't done much (just been lazy) lately, I've tried to benchmark my results but I don't get any sensible results at all yet. Last time Peter said he's working on a more portable way to read dwarf information that doesn't require Linux. But I'm sure he'll give a more acurate

Re: Phabricator for patches and code review

Could not have agreed more with Manuel. I would also like to point out that one of the missions of the arcanist tool is to support all version control systems. That have made sense for FaceBook Inc, who went from Subversion to Git to Mercurial. GHC team only use git now. I think the

Re: C-- specfication

(Sorry Florian, I forgot to reply to list!) Hi Florian! Forget Cminusminus.org, in my experience it seems to have diverged from the GHC version of Cminusminus. I would recommend these resources 1. See the top of https://github.com/ghc/ghc/blob/master/compiler/cmm/CmmParse.y 2. Be ready

Re: GHC boot-library package changelogs release-notes

Hi Herbert, So who should add to the changelog? If I'm committing a new feature to the base library, should my commit include a small addition to the changelog describing my change? Good idea btw! :) Best, Arash On 2014-01-29 17:32, Herbert Valerio Riedel wrote: Hello fellow GHC devs, As

Re: [PATCH] Fix typo in User's Guide

Hello Simon, If you look at this wikipage [1], it still says we can contribute using the `git send-email` to ghc-devs. Now I know you like for people to create tickets for bug fixes. But what about really tiny documentation patches? The WorkingConventions [2] page only mentions how to submit
