#210: Enable access to the x- extension fields, as simple [(String, String)] name-value pairs ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- Reporter: duncan | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Cabal-1.4 Component: Cabal library | Version: 1.2.3.0 Severity: normal | Keywords: Difficulty: easy (<4 hours) | Ghcversion: 6.8.2 Platform: | ------------------------------+--------------------------------------------- The .cabal file format allows custom fields beginning with "x-". This should be useful for many as yet unthought of extensions, experiments and integration with other systems. However currently the Cabal library api does not provide access to these fields. This should be added, as the subject says as a simple list of [(String, String)] name-value pairs. -- Ticket URL: http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/hackage/ticket/210 Hackage http://haskell.org/cabal/ Hackage: Cabal and related projects
