CK Is GHC.PArr documented?
it's perfectly documented in module sources itself :) you can also
look at the ndpFlatten directory in ghc compiler's sources. i've
successfully used them in my program, of course this makes program
faster but only-GHC compatible. so i plan to document it on
http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Arrays and incorporate it in
Data.Array.* infrastructure so that strict arrays will be emulated
under Hugs.
CK The -fparr option is not in the 6.4.1 User's Guide.
they just forgot to do this :) btw, strict arrays will be a good
candidate for Haskell-prime library standard
No, it's not an oversight. The implementation is not complete. Just
last week, we have started a second go at a complete implementation of
fast arrays. Don't hold your breath though, it's a lot of work.
The interface of GHC.PArr will not change very much, but it'll use type
classes and associated types in a very essential way. Underneath, a lot
of GHC specific will be used to optimise code, such as rewrite rules.
So, I don't think this is suitable for Haskell'.
