Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: Compiler | Version: 6.6.1
Severity: normal | Keywords:
Difficulty: Unknown | Os: Unknown
Testcase: | Architecture: Unknown
-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
Parameters passed to script via runghc get malformed unintuitively.
{{{
Commandline "C:\Program Files\" "C:\Program Files\"
should give ["c:\\Program Files\\", "c:\\Program Files\\"]
but gives ["c:\\Program Files\" c:\\Program","Files\""]
}}}
On Windows Vista, ghc is from Neil's installer:
{{{
C:\Users\eivuokko\Documents\source\cabal2wix>copy con test.hs
module Main where
import System.Environment
main = getArgs >>= print
^Z
1 file(s) copied.
C:\Users\eivuokko\Documents\source\cabal2wix>runghc test "c:\Program
Files\" "c:
\Program Files\"
["c:\\Program Files\" c:\\Program","Files\""]
C:\Users\eivuokko\Documents\source\cabal2wix>ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 6.6.1
}}}
