#953: Alex-generated Lexer isn't found when building test-suite ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Reporter: owst | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.14.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: unknown | Ghcversion: Platform: | ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- I'd like to use my Alex-generated lexer in my test-suite. I've tried adding other-modules/build-tools to my test-suite section, but upon building the Lexer module isn't found. I've got no problems using the lexer within my normal executable. Should I be able to use my Lexer in the test-suite? I'll attach a fairly minimal example, the Main module and the TestSuite module both use the Lexer, Main will compile, TestSuite won't: $ cabal configure --enable-tests $ cabal build [... blurb] Preprocessing test suite 'tests' for test-suite-with-alex-0.0... tests/TestSuite.hs:7:8: Could not find module `MyLexer' Perhaps you meant Lexer (needs flag -package ghc-7.4.1) Use -v to see a list of the files searched for. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/953 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
