-------------------------------------------- -- Haddock 2.4.0 -------------------------------------------- A new version of Haddock, the Haskell documentation tool, is out. This is a later version than the one shipped with GHC 6.10.1, which is version 2.3.0. That version will not be released on Hackage since it only builds with GHC 6.10.1 (by accident, actually). Besides adding back support for earlier GHC versions, this release contains some more fixes and support for HTML frames. Please use the bug tracker to submit bug reports or feature requests. -------------------------------------------- -- Changes in version 2.4.0 -------------------------------------------- * Add framed view of the HTML documentation * Build with GHC 6.8.2 and 6.8.3 again * Support images in documentation comments again * Small improvements to the Hoogle output * A few bugs has been fixed -------------------------------------------- -- Changes in version 2.3.0 -------------------------------------------- * Support for GHC 6.10.1 * Slightly improved space usage * Fix a bug that made hidden modules show up in the contents & index pages * Fix a bug that made Haddock load modules twice * Improvements to the Hoogle output -------------------------------------------- -- Links -------------------------------------------- Homepage: http://www.haskell.org/haddock Hackage page: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/haddock-2.4.0 Bugtracker and wiki: http://trac.haskell.org/haddock Mailing list: haskelldoc@haskell.org Code repository: http://code.haskell.org/haddock -------------------------------------------- -- Contributors -------------------------------------------- The persons who contributed to the 2.3.0 and 2.4.0 releases are: Clemens Fruhwirth Peter Gavin Ian Lynagh Neil Mitchell Luke Plant Thomas Schilling David Waern -------------------------------------------- -- Get Involved -------------------------------------------- We welcome new contributors.

Will .haddock files generated by haddock-2.3.0 work with haddock-2.4? If not it would be preferable to have a 2.3.1 release or something for distributions that want to package haddock separately from ghc (eg gentoo). Otherwise we somehow have to hack the ghc build procedure to use an external haddock (that we'd have previously compiled using the same ghc version). Duncan

They will. The .haddock file format has not changed between these versions. David
