#206: cabal-install should be able to generate haddock docs ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Reporter: guest | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.4 Component: cabal-install tool | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: normal Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ---------------------------------+------------------------------------------ Comment (by waern): Idea: If we are lifting flags from other commands into the install flags, we should have different lifting mechanisms for different flags. Take the haddock flags as an example: --hoogle should keep its name but imply --enable-haddock. The other flags should have --haddock- prefixed to their names, but require the --enable-haddock flag to be explicitly set. Or, we could just disallow these flags and use a configuration file. In any case, I think all of these flags would be useful also for the install command (the --internal flag being a border-line case). In the future I hope --enable-haddock (or equivalent mechanism) will be enabled by default.
