#503: "cabal haddock" should accept --hyperlink-sources (not just --hyperlink- source) ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: SamB | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.6.0.1 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * difficulty: unknown => very easy (<1 hour) Comment: Pretty easy. See for example the way we allow different spellings of "optimisation" vs "optimization": From `Distribution/Simple/Setup.hs`: {{{ noArg (Flag NoOptimisation) [] ("disable-optimization": case showOrParseArgs of -- Allow British English spelling: ShowArgs -> []; ParseArgs -> ["disable-optimisation"]) "Build without optimization" }}} I'd like to make it even easier in future. Just declare flags with a single current name and a list of allowed deprecated or alias names. The latter would not show up in the `--help` output. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/503#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
