Description

A bunch of dirs, paths and file names used for intermediate build steps.

Synopsis

Documentation

haddockDirName :: HaddockTarget -> PackageDescription -> FilePath #

This is the name of the directory in which the generated haddocks should be stored. It does not include the distdochtml prefix.

haddockPref :: HaddockTarget -> FilePath -> PackageDescription -> FilePath #

The directory to which generated haddock documentation should be written.

autogenModulesDir :: LocalBuildInfo -> String #

Deprecated: If you can, use autogenComponentModulesDir instead, but if you really wanted package-global generated modules, use autogenPackageModulesDir. In Cabal 2.0, we avoid using autogenerated files which apply to all components, because the information you often want in these files, e.g., dependency information, is best specified per component, so that reconfiguring a different component (e.g., enabling tests) doesn't force the entire to be rebuilt. autogenPackageModulesDir still provides a place to put files you want to apply to the entire package, but most users of autogenModulesDir should seriously consider autogenComponentModulesDir if you really wanted the module to apply to one component.

The directory in which we put auto-generated modules for EVERY component in the package. See deprecation notice.

autogenPackageModulesDir :: LocalBuildInfo -> String #

The directory in which we put auto-generated modules for EVERY component in the package.

autogenComponentModulesDir :: LocalBuildInfo -> ComponentLocalBuildInfo -> String #

The directory in which we put auto-generated modules for a particular component.

autogenModuleName :: PackageDescription -> ModuleName #

Deprecated: Use autogenPathsModuleName instead

The name of the auto-generated module associated with a package

autogenPathsModuleName :: PackageDescription -> ModuleName #

The name of the auto-generated Paths_* module associated with a package

exeExtension :: String #

Default extension for executable files on the current platform. (typically "" on Unix and "exe" on Windows or OS/2)

objExtension :: String #

Extension for object files. For GHC the extension is "o".

dllExtension :: String #

Extension for dynamically linked (or shared) libraries (typically "so" on Unix and "dll" on Windows)

staticLibExtension :: String #

Extension for static libraries

TODO: Here, as well as in dllExtension, it's really the target OS that we're interested in, not the build OS.

Source files & build directories

exeBuildDir :: LocalBuildInfo -> Executable -> FilePath #

The directory where we put build results for an executable

flibBuildDir :: LocalBuildInfo -> ForeignLib -> FilePath #

The directory where we put build results for a foreign library
