#164: bad error message when using configuration flags that were not defined ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: defect | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Cabal | Version: 1.2.0 Severity: minor | Keywords: Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) | Ghcversion: 6.4.2 Platform: Linux | ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Using a flag in an if condition when that flag has not been previously defined gives an unhelpful error message: {{{ -- flag foo never declared: if flag(foo) blah: else other: }}} We get the error message: {{{ cabal-setup: Environment not defined for all free vars }}} The error is reported by {{{Distribution.Configuration.simplifyCondTree}}} but the error should probably be checked for much earlier. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/164 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
