#9499: Add -prelude-is flag -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: agibiansky | Owner: agibiansky Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Resolution: | Keywords: flag Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: #9590 | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D171 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by hvr): * related: => #9590 Comment: Tbh, I wouldn't like seeing the `ghc-options: -is-prelude foobar` approach spread, as it would be a rather adhoc GHC-specific hack IMO, and also require `if impl(ghc >= ...)` guards if older GHCs are to be supported Moreover, I don't understand why the current implicit `Prelude` approach requires "having to import an alternative prelude everywhere", and how `-is-prelude` would help here.
