#294: Setup build should call Setup configure, if necessary ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.8 Component: Cabal library | Version: Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * severity: minor => normal * milestone: => Cabal-1.8 Comment: What need to happen is for the configure flags to be serialised and stored in a file under `dist/setup`. Then when the `.cabal` file changes we should just re-configure using the same set of flags as before. This is not terribly difficult. There is already a framework for serialising sets of flags in either command line or config file style. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/294#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
