We don't have a flag for that; perhaps we should. Or perhaps there should be a flag that says "put all generated files here", that subsumes -odir, -hidir, -hcdir and also coveres _stub.{c,h} files. > Next, --make and --mk-dll don't seem to work together. > Ok, what I do, is I just --make -no-link and then --mk-dll > all the object files I find :) That's true. This is closer to working in 6.5, we should make it work (if anyone's interested, this just means hooking up DriverPipeline.link with DriverPipeline.doMkDLL in the right way). > It seems that -i flag and compiling those _stub.c have > following problem: if path given in -i flag contains any > /- or \-characters, i.e. any real subpaths, it seems to > stop with something like: > \source\sunrise\haskell\haskell\..\debug\build\haskell\plugin-hs-test/d: : > createDirectory: invalid argument (Invalid argument) > It seems a bit random what is the supposed "filename" > part of the path, typically it contains drive letter and few > colons, it doesn't seem totally random data. Could you give me a detailed description of the problem: the exact command line, and the error message that is produced. Thanks.
