RE: GHCi-5.04.2: Windows Open with ... problem.
Will this release include the -odir fix (the one for hiearchical names)? I'm afraid not. That part of the compiler has changed a lot relative to the 5.04.x branch, the fix is non-trivial, and I don't feel confident making that kind of change at this stage of the release cycle. Better the devil you know. Using make instead of --make, and explicit -o options instead of -odir, should let you workaround the problem.

fre 2003-02-14 klockan 09.41 skrev Simon Peyton-Jones: Weÿll merge the fix into the 5.04 branch. Weÿre planning another 5.04 release (5.04.4), which has numerous small fixes, sometime ´soon¡, but exactly when depends on demand. When would you need it for your course? Will this release include the -odir fix (the one for hiearchical names)? We are having problems in a particular case: We are building a program which contains of a number of haskell files, and a C wrapper that calls the haskell functions. When compiling the haskell files header files are generated, which are needed to compile the C wrapper. We do this something like this ghc --make Module.hs -odir lib gcc -c wrapper.c ghc wrapper.o odir/*.o Do we have to wait for a version that does -odir correctly, or is there a better way to do this? The problem is that if we compile without -odir the object files are generated where the source files are, and those directories (it's our custom haskell libraries) include a lot of source and object files that should not be part of this program.

Re: GHCi-5.04.2: Windows Open with ... problem.
Hi
Thanks for the answer. It appears as if XP calls
ghci via
"p::\ath\to\ghci" "c:\Documents and
Settings\foo\"
i.e. with quotes.
Trying to start ghci via cygwin using any of
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces/Test.lhs
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces\\Test.lhs $
ghci "Test with space/Test.lhs"
$ ghci "Test with space\\Test.lhs"
will give the error: can't find module `Test' (while processing "Test")
Testing
$ ghci Test\ with\ spaces/Test.lhs
$ ghci "Test with space/Test.lhs"
under Linux gives the same error.
Hence there seem to be something strange about pathnames containing spaces
under GHCi.
However trying the same thing under GHC works like a charm under both
cygwin and Linux.
Any ideas?

Hi thee,
this is most likely due to the XP shell invoking
'ghci' as follows:
p:\ath\to\ghci c:\Documents and
Settings\foo\
which makes it look as if multiple arguments are
given on the
command-line (indeed, that's what the argv vector
will contain.)
The registered file assocations for .hs and .lhs
takes care of quoting
the filename argument, so I'm not sure this is
worth fixing.

Enterprising souls may want to have a look at the
Registry key
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Unknown\shell\openas\command
and look at how the %1 arg is quoted (or
not)

Subject: GHCi-5.04.2: Windows
Open with ... problem.
Hello.
I am having a problem using the
Open with ... on haskell-files under WinXP. The problem is this:
create a file on my desktop and then right-click and try
to open it using Open with - ghci. I get the following error
message:
can't find module `C:\Documents' (while
processing "C:\\Documents")
Obviously GHCi incorrectly handles
white space in the path. If I run under CygwinI can use a script
like:
c:\\ghc\\ghc-5.04.2\\bin\\ghci `cygpath -d
$1`;
But how do I solve this if I'm not using
cygwin?
Thanks,
Calle
