#13704: -main-is flag should change exports in default module header -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: cdsmith | Owner: (none) Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by nomeata): Just giving a bit more context: The report specifies in https://www.haskell.org/onlinereport/haskell2010/haskellch5.html#x11-990005.... that permitted. If this is used, the header is assumed to be `module Main(main) where`. One could argue that the `-main-is`’s intention is to change *all* aspects of `Main.main`, i.e. not only the entry point, but also the default module header. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/13704#comment:1 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
