#9386: GHCi cannot load .so in ./ -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: crockeea | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Unknown/Multiple | Difficulty: Unknown Type of failure: Other | Blocked By: Test Case: | Related Tickets: Blocking: | Differential Revisions: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by crockeea): * component: GHCi => Compiler Comment: For the purposes of finding and fixing the bug, here are two more tidbits: 1. This bug also affects GHC with .so files 2. This bug does ''not'' affect .o files. In that case, I can just type a list of files '''a.o b.o ...''' and GHC searches the local directory. This seems to support your suggested solution to just prepend a ./ to paths. But why is the behavior different for .o and .so files? Perhaps it's a matter of hardcoded extensions? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9386#comment:7 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
