#9686: Link option detection does not work for incremental builds on Windows -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: gintas | Owner: gintas Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.9 Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: Difficulty: Unknown | None/Unknown Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- ghc on Linux embeds link options into the resulting binary in order to be able to tell when a binary needs to be recompiled because different link options have been passed in to ghc. This functionality is not present on Windows, forcing users to pass in -fforce-recomp. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9686 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
