#16253: Offer a shorthand for `--skip=_build/stage$n/compiler/.dependencies.mk` -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: sgraf | Owner: (none) Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Build System | Version: 8.6.3 (Hadrian) | 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 simonpj): Can you describe more explicitly "the solution you have used in the past" in our context? I think you are saying * Implement `ghc -scome-new-flag M.hs` which runs CPP on `M.hs` (if necessary), parses the result in some simple minded way, and spits out all of `M`'s direct imports. This seems to be what your `usedHeaders` thing does. If we could do `need (usedHeaders "M.hs")` maybe we would never need to use `ghc -M` at all? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/16253#comment:10 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
