#8683: add "cpp program" and "cpp program options" to settings file -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: carter Type: feature request | Status: patch Priority: high | Milestone: 7.8.3 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: 9094 | Related Tickets: #8439 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by MtnViewMark): As mentioned on phabricator, I've tested the patch and it works. This enables the Mac build to have a single build, which can be re-configured for the target machine after it has been copied onto the target machine. This is important as otherwise the HP would have to be distributed either in two forms (one for clang, one for non-clang), or with the ghc-clang- wrapper hack, which works but is brittle. Assuming this goes in, the next HP will have a script, activate-hs, which will allow the user to switch between installactions of the HP, and will also fix up these settings in cases where the users tool chain has switched from non-clang to clang. (This can happen on systems where the user has been using an old Xcode and then updates Xcode.) -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8683#comment:67 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
