This speedup is obtained by instead of generating 211 shell commands to compile the RGL one file at a time, generate 7 shell commands, passing a number of
related files to GF in one go.
In addition to cutting down the zero build time, this opens up for speeding up
full builds of the RGL, by adding more parallelism in GF's grammar compilation
machinery.
(Note: gf.cabal already takes advantage of GHC's parallel build option to
speed up the compilation of GF itself, if GHC>=7.8 is used.)
GF.Text.Pretty provides the class Pretty and overloaded versions of the pretty
printing combinators in Text.PrettyPrint, allowing pretty printable values to
be used directly instead of first having to convert them to Doc with functions
like text, int, char and ppIdent. Some modules have been converted to use
GF.Text.Pretty, but not all. Precedences could be added to simplify the pretty
printers for terms and patterns.
GF.Infra.Location contains the types Location and L, factored out from
GF.Grammar.Grammar, and the class HasSourcePath. This allowed the import
of GF.Grammar.Grammar to be removed from GF.Infra.CheckM, making it more
like a pure library module.

src/runtime/haskell/PGF/Internal.hs:17:8:
Could not find module ‘Data.Binary.IEEE754’
It is a member of the hidden package ‘data-binary-ieee754-0.4.4’.
Perhaps you need to add ‘data-binary-ieee754’ to the build-depends in your .cabal file.
When using full=yes in the web service 'complete' command,
you now get an additional field 'seq' with the longest possible completion.
So, given:
lin
f1 = ss "the" ;
f2 = ss ("the red house" | "the real deal") ;
and trying to complete on input "th", you get:
[
{
"from": "TestCnc",
"brackets": {
"cat": "_",
"fid": 0,
"index": 0,
"fun": "_",
"children": []
},
"text": "th",
"completions": [
{
"token": "the",
"funs": [
{
"fun": "f1",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the"
},
{
"fun": "f2",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the red house"
},
{
"fun": "f2",
"hyps": [],
"cat": "C",
"seq": "the real deal"
}
]
}
]
}
]
The wide coverage demo apps now shows a "please wait" message while the grammar
is loading, and a red error message if the grammar is not found on the server.
The Simple Translation Tool also show red error messages if the grammar is not
found.
