patch applied (cabal): Rewrite the parser for the configuration structure to allow laout or braces
by Duncan Coutts 05 Sep '07

05 Sep '07

Wed Sep 5 15:36:09 PDT 2007 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Rewrite the parser for the configuration structure to allow laout or braces Joint work with Thomas Schilling. The sections and indeed fields (and if/else) can now use either explicit brace {} style layout or indentation eg: > library > exposed-modules: Blah or > library { > exposed-modules: > } layout style can be nested within explict braces style and vica versa. Also add some more checks and relax the tab checks. Unrecognised sections, like unrecognised fields, are not fatal errors, so we could add sections in future without breaking old cabal.

Just to let everyone know, I've branched Cabal for a 1.2 release. Cabal 1.2 branch: http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal-branches/cabal-1.2/ Cabal HEAD branch: http://darcs.haskell.org/cabal/ The version number in the 1.2 branch is still 1.1.7, we'll make a 1.2.0 release from this branch soon. The intention is that GHC 6.8.1 RC will use Cabal 1.2 Duncan

patch applied (cabal): Generalise build --ghc-option flag to --prog-option for any prog
by Duncan Coutts 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Mon Sep 3 04:06:58 PDT 2007 Duncan Coutts <duncan(a)haskell.org> * Generalise build --ghc-option flag to --prog-option for any prog and remove makefile --ghc-option flag as it's not used (as far as I can see). It works generically by updating the ProgramConfiguration rather than the previous ad-hoc implementation. This feature is generally only useful for hackers who want to pass extra args to a progam during the build step (probably as a one-off) without having to reconfigure.
