#10822: GHC inconsistently handles \\?\ for long paths on Windows ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Reporter: snoyberg | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.2 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Windows | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Type of failure: None/Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Wiki Page: | ---------------------------------+---------------------------------------- Comment (by Phyx-): The problem is that we rely on ports of POSIX applications to work. e.g. GCC, binutils etc. So even if GHC supports UNC paths. It probably wouldn't help much unfortunately. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/10822#comment:2 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
