#12494: Implementation of setenv in base incorrectly claims empty environment variable not supported on Windows -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: libraries/base | Version: 8.0.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: | Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by hvr): Btw, if we go for the first option, i.e. just change semantics of the existing `setEnv` operation (in which case I'd argue not to use any warnings, as we don't have any facility to properly acknowledge specific warnings yet), then we need to make sure that the hackage:setenv package gets retrofitted with an upper bound on `base`, since `setenv` re-exports `setEnv` from `base`... -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12494#comment:6 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
