Build and install executable section
phischu opened this issue · comments
When attempting to install an executable with haskell-suite cabal just dies. I believe the following steps are necessary to allow custom compilers to also process executable sections:
- Design a command line interface for executable building.
- Design a command line interface for executable installation.
- In Cabal write a function 'Distribution.Simple.HaskellSuite.buildExe' and a function 'Distribution.Simple.HaskellSuite.installExe'. They should call the compiler tool.
- Invent reasonable defaults for the 'simple' compiler.
Perhaps in the future I might propose something concrete in the form of a pull request.
