#11280: getCurrentDirectory should raise better error string when cwd doesn't exist -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: ezyang | Owner: Type: bug | Status: new Priority: low | Milestone: ⊥ Component: | Version: 7.11 libraries/directory | Keywords: easy | Operating System: Unknown/Multiple Architecture: | Type of failure: None/Unknown Unknown/Multiple | Test Case: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Related Tickets: Differential Rev(s): | Wiki Page: -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Run this script in a directory which no longer exists: {{{ import System.Directory main = getCurrentDirectory >>= putStrLn }}} Currently the error looks like: {{{ ezyang@sabre:~/test$ ./test bash: ./test: No such file or directory }}} It would be nicer to give a better message in this case.
