By default, GHC builds with all optimizations - and profiling; most hackers will want a quicker build, so creating - a mk/build.mk file and knowing how to rebuild only parts of GHC is - very important. - - This is part of the "Building GHC" section of the wiki, which - has more detailed information on GHC's build system should you - need it. - - - Coding conventions - - http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/WorkingConventions - - This wiki page explains the ground rules for code that is intended - to go into the mainline compiler source. - - - The GHC Commentary - - http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/Commentary - - Notes on the internals and architecture of GHC. - - -Mailing lists -------------- - - Ask on glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org if you have difficulties. - If you're working with the current darcs sources of GHC, then - cvs-ghc@haskell.org might be a more appropriate (developers hang - out here).
