#9524: GHC uses wrong linker when cross compiling -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Kritzefitz | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler (FFI) | Version: 7.8.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Unknown/Multiple Difficulty: Unknown | Type of failure: Building Blocked By: | GHC failed Related Tickets: | Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Greetings, I tried to compile a cross compiler for x86_64-w64-mingw32. Most of GHC compiles fine. However, after a while there's an error that ld can't find a reference to "GetModuleFileNameW". I tried compiling a dummy C program with that symbol and it compiles fine. My guess is that GHC is using the wrong linker during cross-compiling, whereas GCC uses the right one. But I may be totally wrong, so please don't rely on that judgement. The log of the make run is attached. Regards Sven -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9524 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
