Hello,
I'm just getting around to tidying up the AVL library and releasing a new version and, of course thinking about Cabalising it too. But I'm finding difficult to figure out how to do this from the Cabal docs and Distribution library haddock.
Anyway, what I want to do is.. Run cpphs on all the sources Compile the results using -split-objs (for ghc at least).
Cabal doesn't support -split-objs at the moment. To do this you'll need to write your own Makefile and hook it up to Cabal (possible, but a bit fiddly I believe).
Thanks, that's what I thought but wasn't entirely sure. -split-objs is pretty important I think (in fact I really think this should be the default behaviour). I already have a make file that works fine (maybe with a bit of user tweeking of paths and wotnot before compiling) so seeing as I can't easily eliminate gnu make dependency anyway maybe I should just stick with this for now.
