Re: Plugins: How to determine ghc vs ghci

Thanks! That indeed does work. I'm a bit surprised though that there isn't already an internal boolean set somewhere; checking for a string in the arguments sounds a bit fragile. On Tue, Nov 24, 2015 at 12:28 AM, Aycan İrican wrote:

How about `GHC.Environment.getFullArgs` which includes “—interactive” when you’re in GHCi?

I'm working on a plugin, and would like to be able to tell if it's GHC or GHCi that's running.

I tried:

df <- getDynFlags let isGHCi = ghcMode df == CompManager

Alas, while that correctly tells apart "ghci" from "ghc -c", it also returns True when ghc is called without the "-c" argument.

Is there a better/more robust way of figuring out whether we're in an interactive session?
