In general, I try to keep the libraries compatable with the last 'tagged' version of the repository, if that is not the case, then I need to fix it. It very well might be broken at the moment, as I recently switched to using the new Data.Binary serialization library and using zlib for compression, so
Nice to know. I didn't get that impression from the libraries page - it might be a good idea to add a note "the libraries are intended for use with the latest tag".
in any case, rather than using the libraries, you can compile with
--noauto -Llib/base -Llib/haskell98 to use the source files for the library directly. this is generally recommended for development of jhc anyway.
That doesn't seem to work. stefan@stefans:/usr/local/src/jhc$ ./jhc --noauto -Llib/base -Llib/haskell98 -flint -v test/HelloWorld.hs jhc --noauto -Llib/base -Llib/haskell98 -flint -v test/HelloWorld.hs Compiling ["test/HelloWorld.hs"] Loading libraries: [] Found dependency: test/HelloWorld.hs at test/HelloWorld.hs Error: Module not found: Jhc.Prim stefan@stefans:/usr/local/src/jhc$ Adding -Llib/jhc does not help, nor does find . -name *.ho -delete. I suppose I should also mention that when I ^C'd and restarted the library build (to change RTS options - turns out I don't have enough RAM to build the libraries without +RTS -c, and even with it's a tight squeeze), Jhc found existing .ho files, skipped most of the messages, ground for a few minutes, and bombed out with a Handle-misuse related error (which I unfortunately cannot remember). Is this another known infelicity? Thanks for the attention. Stefan
