#14508: Bring up Appveyor for Windows CI -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: bgamari Type: task | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Continuous | Version: 8.2.1 Integration | Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- The current plan is to move to Appveyor for CI on Windows. Mateusz has a first [[https://github.com/tweag/ghc/blob/tweag/circleci- macos/appveyor.yml|stab]] at a configuration. Unfortunately it looks like we will far-exceed the one-hour default build time limit. It appears they Appveyor [[https://github.com/appveyor/ci/issues/517 |does give]] extensions to open-source projects, but typically only extend to 1.5 hours. It's unlikely that this will be sufficient as even my local Windows builds take ~1.75 hours. It appears that Rust has found a way around this as their [[https://ci.appveyor.com/project/rust-lang/rust/history|builds]] routinely last ~2 hours. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14508 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
