[GHC] #8685: -split-objs doesn't work for executables
#8685: -split-objs doesn't work for executables ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: refold | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: normal | Milestone: Component: Driver | Version: 7.6.3 Keywords: | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: Unknown/Multiple | Type of failure: None/Unknown Difficulty: Unknown | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | ------------------------------------+------------------------------------- While investigating [this bug report](https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/1611), I've noticed that the `-split-objs` option only works for libraries, but not for executables. That is, unlike in the case of libraries, the driver feeds only `A.o B.o ...` files to the linker instead of `A_split_0.o A_split_1.o ... B_split_0.o B_split_1.o ...`. It'd be nice if `-split-objs` could be changed to also work on executables. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/8685 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
