Data and Typeable instances for GenericPackageDescription
by JP Moresmau 17 Jun '10

17 Jun '10

Hello, I was wondering if there are instances for Typeable and Data available somewhere for GenericPackageDescription. Automatic deriving fails, probably, if I read the docs right, because some types in there have more than 7 parameters. It would help me to use the cabal file parsing functions and convert the result automatically to JSON for use in Eclipse through Scion. Of course if there isn't I suppose I can write my own instances and maybe share them with who ever is interested. Thanks! -- JP Moresmau http://jpmoresmau.blogspot.com/

patch applied (cabal): --help shows first long option and added --hyperlink-sources

Tue Jun 8 07:54:44 PDT 2010 Vo Minh Thu <noteed(a)gmail.com> * --help shows first long option and added --hyperlink-sources The --help option output now prints only the first (if any) long option. Because of this, --{enable,disable}-optimisation (british spelling) is simply added to the list of options without testing showOrParseArgs. --hyperlink-sources is now also accepted for the haddock command.
