#9499: Add -prelude-is flag -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: agibiansky | Owner: agibiansky Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Resolution: | Keywords: flag Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: #9590 | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D171 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by hvr): Fwiw, here's a different way how to replace the default `Prelude` with the current tooling that would IMO reduce the need for an `-is-prelude` option: https://github.com/hvr/base-noprelude The basic idea is to have `base` sans the `Prelude` module, and then you just need to provide the `Prelude` module either locally in the Package, or by importing some other package that provides the `Prelude` module. For instance, there's the `extended-prelude` package example: https://github.com/hvr/base-noprelude/tree/master/examples/extended- prelude which can be then used simply by setting `build-depends: base-noprelude, extended-prelude` -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9499#comment:8 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
