#317: filter -threaded when profiling is on ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: gbacon | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: HEAD Severity: minor | Resolution: Keywords: | Difficulty: very easy (<1 hour) Ghcversion: 6.8.2 | Platform: ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Changes (by duncan): * priority: normal => low * difficulty: normal => very easy (<1 hour) * severity: normal => minor Comment: For context, GHC rejects the combination of threaded and profiling. Some projects specify `ghc-options: -threaded` which means when some other developer comes along to profile this executable they bump into the error. So perhaps Cabal should just filter out the option when building profiling executables and warn that it's doing so, since changing to the single threaded rts may have other behavioural effects. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/317#comment:1 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
