#13828: Re-linking is not avoided when -dynamic is used -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: nh2 | Owner: (none) Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.2 (Linking) | 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: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- In normal builds, GHC will no re-link executables when that's not necesary (e.g. when no code has changed). But when `-dynamic` is used, it re-links every time.
