#12499: Support multiple library import libs -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Runtime | Version: 8.0.1 System (Linker) | Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: | Type of failure: GHC rejects Unknown/Multiple | valid program Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Our implementation of import libraries only support single library import libs. These are by far the most common ones. However it is possible to make multi library import libraries. E.g. one import library pointing to multiple dlls. `binutils` correct supports these and with #5987 GHC will be relying on them to work. It makes sense that we are able to load them in GHCi as well. This will be required for a fully working dynamic GHC on Windows. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12499 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
