#10230: multiline literals doesn't work with CPP extension. -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: qnikst | Owner: Type: bug | Status: closed Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.1 Resolution: invalid | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: Type of failure: None/Unknown | Unknown/Multiple Blocked By: | Test Case: Related Tickets: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Changes (by rwbarton): * status: new => closed * resolution: => invalid Comment: If you use `-XCPP` then you are responsible for ensuring that the output of the C preprocessor is a valid Haskell program. Line continuations (`\` at the end of a line) are handled by the C preprocessor (so that you can define multi-line macros).
