[GHC] #11214: Remove JavaScriptFFI from --supported-extensions list

#11214: Remove JavaScriptFFI from --supported-extensions list -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: luite | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- GHC supports the `JavaScriptFFI` extension syntactically, but it just rejects all `foreign import javascript` declarations in the typechecker. Similar to the change in #11102 I think the proper thing to do is to make GHC say that `JavaScriptFFI` is not supported. Cabal 1.24 can then use this information in dependency resolution. GHCJS would then just add this to the list by itself, since it has its own front end. -- Ticket URL: <http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/11214> GHC <http://www.haskell.org/ghc/> The Glasgow Haskell Compiler

#12720: Remoce ghcii.sh --------------------------------------+---------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: x86_64 (amd64) | Type of failure: Other Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: --------------------------------------+---------------------------- On Windows we have an extra script `ghcii.sh` that is recommended when we run in a console that does not use `conhost`. e.g mintty from msys2 or the cygwin shell. This is because the sigINT signal is being swallowed by these consoles. I believe we can work around this by listening to Window messages as well. These consoles do their own drawings, which means they load `gdi32.dll`. Which means they have a message pump so should be receiving Window events.
