Some times when I play around with GHC I'd like to turn off dynamic linking to make GHC compile faster. I'm not sure what the right way to do this in build.mk. It's made confusing by the conditional statements in that file:
GhcLibWays = $(if $(filter $(DYNAMIC_GHC_PROGRAMS),YES),v dyn,v)
This line make me worry that if I don't put
DYNAMIC_GHC_PROGRAMS = NO
in the right place in build.mk it wont "take".
There's also this one:
ifeq "$(PlatformSupportsSharedLibs)" "YES" GhcLibWays += dyn endif
Seeing this makes me wonder if
DYNAMIC_GHC_PROGRAMS = NO DYNAMIC_BY_DEFAULT = NO
is enough or if the build system still sniffs out the fact that my platform supports dynamic linking.
Could someone please give an authoritative answer to how to turn off dynamic linking?
Hi Johan, did you find the answer?
