#146: cabal should support CPP and haskell string gaps in the same file ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.1.6 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) Ghcversion: 6.6 | Platform: Linux ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * difficulty: normal => easy (<4 hours) Comment: The only solution I can see would be to always prefer cpphs over cpp for preprocessing Haskell code. That change is easy to make if people think it's the right thing to do in general. It previously used to work that way, but it was switched to use cpp by default because few people had cpphs installed and some things would break just for those users which was hard to track down. cpphs may have improved since then and may be more widely deployed so it might be ok to switch again. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/146#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
