#8683: add "cpp program" and "cpp program options" to settings file -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: carter | Owner: Type: feature request | Status: new Priority: highest | Milestone: 7.8.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.8.1-rc2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Difficulty: Unknown Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: #8439 -------------------------------------+------------------------------------ Comment (by carter): so current status of my branch: * the build system currently needs some love to handle none gcc/clang CPP, (and fails in way i'm not very good at understanding when i try using cpphs). It seems --with-gcc=gcc-4.8 --with-hs-cpp=clang works, i'm in the midst of testing that and the opposite presently * subject being build with one of those two, we can then patch the settings file to point to cpphs and the resulting configered GHC passes the test suite I factor the latter as its own patch? That seems valuable for us now, the former isnt quite as key, though we shoudl figure it out.. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8683#comment:41 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
