#10143: Separate PprFlags (used by Outputable) from DynFlags -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: ezyang Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.11 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: #10961 | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by bgamari): Dalaing, what ever happened to this? I would like to see this happen. Currently it is significantly harder than necessary for API users to use the pretty printer due to the spurious dependence on the entirety of `DynFlags`. Moreover, this dependency leads to an awkward coupling between the printer and the all encompassing `DynFlags` module, leading to a proliferation of import loops. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10143#comment:17 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
