Installing _all_ documentation?
by Peter Simons 18 Sep '03

18 Sep '03

Pardon me if this is a dumb question, but is there a make target, which I can use to install all documentation that comes with the build? I am aware of "make install-docs", but this doesn't build nor install, say, the user's guide. Nor does it install documentation for Alex or Happy, even though I'm building those tools as part of GHC. Any obvious solutions? Peter

readline package in GHC 6.0.1 on Windows
by Ganesh Sittampalam 18 Sep '03

18 Sep '03

Hi, I notice that the readline package is missing from the Windows MSI build of GHC 6.0.1. Is this deliberate and/or a fundamental limitation of the Windows platform? Would I have to/be able to make my own Cygwin-based build to get it? Cheers, Ganesh

Yes, with the caveat that this applies only to the the code *generated* by the GHC you're building. > Starting with a reg compiler producing reg code and iterating > a standard > configure/make/make install with 6.0.1 gives these numbers on x86: > > 70m5.850s > 86m27.550s > 86m26.350s > > so it looks like this is about 25% slower, although I don't know how > much it will vary by architecture.

Bear in mind that a lot of the time is spent in GCC, and that is going to be roughly the same for registerised vs. unregisterised, so overall compile times don't look much different. However, I think you'll find that ordinary Haskell programs will vary by about a factor of 2 in performance between registerised & unregisterised (last time I checked was a few years ago, though). What are the binary sizes like? > This seems better than no GHC at all for unsupported arch/OS > combinations, and I unfortunately don't have the time to learn the > details of what needs to be done and all the assembly languages and > calling conventions that Debian supports. > > It would also mean that anyone who does want to try to get it working > registerised on an arch could skip the cross-porting stage. Sure, shipping an unregisterised port is completely acceptable. > Incidentally, it looks to me like the comment > > # NOTE: this is not the same as building the compiler itself > # unregisterised.

Hmm, I should update that comment. Cheers, Simon
