cabal-version: 2.0
name: bytestring-mmap-compat
version: 0.2.3
synopsis: mmap support for strict ByteStrings (unix >= 2.8 fork)
description:
A fork of @bytestring-mmap@ that compiles against @unix >= 2.8@.
.
The original package (Don Stewart, last uploaded 2011) calls
@System.Posix.openFd@ with the pre-2.8 four-argument signature.
Upstream is unmaintained and the latest Hackage revision restricts
the @unix@ bound to @< 2.8@, which makes the package unusable in
package sets that pull in a newer @unix@ transitively.
.
This fork adds a tiny @System.Posix.IO.Compat@ shim that selects
the right @openFd@ signature via CPP and widens the @unix@ bound,
leaving the public API (@System.IO.Posix.MMap@,
@System.IO.Posix.MMap.Lazy@) byte-for-byte compatible with the
upstream.
.
The package name is suffixed with @-compat@ so it can coexist on
Hackage with the original; switch back to upstream
@bytestring-mmap@ once it adopts a compatible @openFd@ call site.
