It turns out this has quite a few benefits, and would let us kill some of the really awkward hacks we have in GHC to work around problems that arise because we're running interpreted code and the compiler on the same runtime.<br>
<br>
I summarised the idea here: <a href="https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RemoteGHCi" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/RemoteGHCi</a><br>
<br>
I'd be interested to hear if anyone has any thoughts around this, particularly if doing this would make your life difficult in some way. Are people relying on dynCompileExpr for anything?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Simon<br>
