#200: Allow more convenient use of ghc profiling options -auto and -auto-all ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by ganesh): * cc: ganesh (added) Comment: I suggest {{{cabal configure --profile-this-library}}} to add {{{-auto- all}}} to a library's profiling options, and {{{cabal configure --custom- profiling}}} to remove it from an executable's profiling options. If the GHC ways system ever supports it, I would also like to be able to build a library both {{{-prof}}} and {{{-prof -auto-all}} for future use. This would then require some interface to select which profiling versions of libraries to use downstream. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/200#comment:10 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
