Right GhcLibWays=v did the job, thanks Simon | -----Original Message----- | From: Austin Seipp [mailto:aseipp@pobox.com] | Sent: 21 November 2013 12:13 | To: Simon Peyton-Jones | Cc: ghc-devs@haskell.org Devs | Subject: Re: Too many symbols | | Hi Simon, | | I believe I've found the problem. The issue is that even with | DYNAMIC_* variables set, GhcLibWays still contains the 'dyn' way as | opposed to just the 'vanilla' way. If you do: | | $ make show VALUE=GhcLibWays | | in your build tree, it will probably say "v dyn", indicating it'll | build the GHC DLL as well as vanilla objects. This makes sense since | we rebuild using different ways in a lot of cases - dynamic-too is | just a special case, and the other variables (DYNAMIC_TOO, | DYNAMIC_GHC_PROGRAMS and DYNAMIC_BY_DEFAULT) don't make a difference | here. | | In the short term, you can hardcode GhcLibWays=v in your build | settings, but the default templates should perhaps expose something | more sensible. (They should also precisely document the impact of | these variables too.) | | On Wed, Nov 20, 2013 at 3:11 PM, Simon Peyton-Jones | <simonpj@microsoft.com> wrote: | > Friends | > | > I’m getting the dreaded “Too many symbols in DLL” problem on Windows | (see | > below). | > | > I believe I can get round it by using static linking only, yes?
