#16250: Make it easy to invoke Hadrian -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: goldfire | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 8.6.3 (Hadrian) | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Right now, invoking Hadrian requires running `hadrian/build.sh`. That's a small mouthful (when using it regularly), and it crucially depends on being in the root directory of GHC. It would be very convenient to have some command (say, `build`) which would work ''anywhere'' within the GHC tree, e.g. by searching for the root and then running the local Hadrian build script. Doing this would require devs to install something locally (so that it's in the PATH always), but that something can be small and light. Shall we fix? Thanks. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16250 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
