[GHC] #12498: Support unconventionally named import libraries
#12498: Support unconventionally named import libraries -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: Phyx- | Owner: Type: feature | Status: new request | Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.2.1 Component: Runtime | Version: 8.0.1 System (Linker) | Keywords: | Operating System: Windows Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: #11072 Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- GHC's import library support currently does not recognize import libraries which are named something other than `.dll.a`. This is because we're using the extension to determine the mode to use. Instead we should look at the presence of certain patterns. e.g. .o files contain only `.idata` sections etc. This would allow us to be able to support import libraries such as `gcc_s` and no longer need to hardcode the GCC library full name in cabal file. This should add more compatibility with packages on hackage. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12498 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
