#447: build multiple packages in parallel ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: duncan | Owner: refold Type: enhancement | Status: assigned Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: cabal-install tool | Version: Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: normal | Ghcversion: 6.8.3 Platform: | ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment(by refold): Attached are my patches that [http://dissocial.st/blog/2011-08-22-GSoC- Final parallelise cabal-install's 'install' command]. Sorry for sending them as a single large bundle - ideally I would like to split the patch series, but `darcs send` makes it hard by ignoring depended-upon patches. Additionally, it's hard to destructively edit history in Darcs, so instead of obliterating two unnecessary patches (changes to `README` and `cabal-install.cabal`) I undid those changes with a "merge" patch. The patch series logically consists of three parts (in chronological order): 1) From the first patch up to the "Parallelise the `install` command" patch Implements the basic parallel framework as described [http://dissocial.st/blog/2011-06-03-GSocIntroduction here]. Changes are a bit more pervasive than expected because of Cabal's internal assumption that the current working directory is the same as the directory of the package currently being built. 2) From the end of the previous part up to the "Implement output serialisation (client bits)." patch Implements output serialisation - since we don't want the console output to be garbled, all printing should be done from a single thread. This is done by changing all code called from D.C.I.executeInstallPlan to use callbacks instead of standard output functions (debug/info/...). 3) Bugfixes and polishing (remaining patches) During this stage I was concentrated on testing and fixing bugs and didn't add any new functionality. My patches are also available in a [http://darcsden.com/23Skidoo/Cabal separate Darcs repository]. -- Ticket URL: <http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/447#comment:5> Hackage <http://haskell.org/cabal/> Hackage: Cabal and related projects
