#8180: Template Haskell now requires -dynamic or -dynamic-too -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: goldfire | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.7 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by simonmar): Here's a straw man proposal: * In `--make` mode, if any modules require `TemplateHaskell`, then we switch on `-dynamic-too` automatically, if GHC is dynamically-linked and we're compiling statically * Make `-dynamic-too` work with `-o`, by using some sensible convention for object file names * Document this behavior in the release notes and User's Guide -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8180#comment:5 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
