#10360: GHC ignores command-line options if *.o and *.hi files exist -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: asr | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Description changed by asr: Old description:
For example, given the module
{{{#!hs module Test where
foo = putStrLn "Hello World" }}}
if I compile using the command
{{{ ghc -c Test.hs }}}
and then I compile adding the `-Wall` flag
{{{ ghc -c -Wall Test.hs }}}
I would expect the warning
{{{ Test.hs:3:1: Warning: Top-level binding with no type signature: foo :: IO () }}}
but GHC produces the message
{{{ compilation IS NOT required }}}
That is, the `-Wall` flag was ignored because the `Test.o` and `Test.hi` exist.
(I couldn't reproduce this behaviour using gcc version 4.6.3.)
