* users_guide: Various spelling fixesBen Gamari2015-06-161-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: Today when reading through the users manual I noticed a few spelling issues. This prompted me to run the document through ispell which turned up even more issues. I've tried to be conservative here; most of the corrections are misspellings and typos but in a few cases I've moved from American to British orthography. Test Plan: Read.

* rts: add "-no-rtsopts-suggestions" optionJavran Cheng2015-05-061-0/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Depends on D767 Setting this flag prevents RTS from giving RTS suggestions like "Use `+RTS -Ksize -RTS' to increase it." According to the comment @rwbarton made in #9579, sometimes "+RTS" suggestions don't make sense (e.g. when the program is precompiled and installed through package managers), we can encourage people to distribute binaries with either "-no-rtsopts-suggestions" or "-rtsopts".

* Implement `MIN_VERSION_GLASGOW_HASKELL()` macroHerbert Valerio Riedel2014-10-051-0/+79
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This exposes the `cProjectPatchLevel{1,2}` value at the CPP level to allow it to be used in CPP conditionals. Concretely, GHC 7.10.2.20150623 would result in #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL__ 710 #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL_PATCHLEVEL1__ 2 #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL_PATCHLEVEL2__ 20150623 while GHC 7.10.3 results in #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL__ 710 #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL_PATCHLEVEL1__ 3 and finally GHC 7.9.20141009 results in #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL__ 709 #define __GLASGOW_HASKELL_PATCHLEVEL1__ 20141009 As it's error-prone to properly express CPP conditionals for testing GHC multi-component versions, a new macro `MIN_VERSION_GLASGOW_HASKELL()` is provided (also via the new CPP include file `ghcversion.h`) Finally, in order to make it easier to define the new CPP macro `MIN_VERSION_GLASGOW_HASKELL()`, a new default-included `include/ghcversion.h` is used for the new CPP definitions.

* Rework how iOS does linking (#8127)Austin Seipp2013-08-281-3/+29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | iOS has some particular constraints about how applications can be built: * We must generate a static library (.a) since XCode does the final link. * We need to carefully give the right set of arguments to libtool in the case we're generating an archive. * Dynamic linking isn't supported. * It can only be done on OS X. This patch cleans up all of the above. We add a new flag `-staticlib` (only supported on Darwin) that allows us to produce archive files using libtool, and a -pgmlibtool flag to control which 'libtool' executable to use. This fixes #8127. I believe this is the last piece missing from the iOS cross compiler.

* Use consistent dashes in the user guideIan Lynagh2013-06-221-1/+1
| | | | | | We were using a mixture of "&ndash;&ndash;" and "--". We now consistently use "--", which has the advantage that copy/pasting flags will work.
* Define __GLASGOW_HASKELL_LLVM__ when using the LLVM back end.Geoffrey Mainland2013-02-011-0/+15
| | | | | | When compiling via LLVM, GHC now defines the CPP symbol __GLASGOW_HASKELL_LLVM__ to the version of LLVM used, e.g., __GLASGOW_HASKELL_LLVM__ is defined to be 30 for LLVM version 3.0.

* Rationalise GhcMode, HscTarget and GhcLinkSimon Marlow2007-04-111-0/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch cleans up the GHC API, and adds some functionality: we can now compile to object code inside GHCi. Previously we had: data GhcMode = BatchCompile | Interactive | OneShot | JustTypecheck | MkDepend data HscTarget = HscC | HscAsm | HscJava | HscInterpreted | HscNothing There was redundancy here; if GhcMode is Interactive, then only HscInterpreted makes sense, and JustTypecheck required HscNothing. Now we have: data GhcMode = CompManager -- ^ --make, GHCi, etc. | OneShot -- ^ ghc -c Foo.hs | MkDepend -- ^ ghc -M, see Finder for why we need this and HscTarget remains as before. Previously GhcLink looked like this: data GhcLink = NoLink | StaticLink Now we have: data GhcLink = NoLink | LinkBinary | LinkInMemory The idea being that you can have an HscTarget of HscAsm (for example) and still link in memory. There are two new flags: -fobject-code selects object code as the target (selects either -fasm or -fvia-C, whichever is the default) This can be usd with ':set' in GHCi, or on the command line. -fbyte-code sets byte-code as the target. Only works in GHCi. One day maybe this could save the byte code in a file when used outside GHCi. (names chosen for consistency with -fno-code). Changes to the GHC API: newSession no longer takes the GhcMode argument. The GhcMode defaults to CompManager, which is usually what you want. To do JustTypecheck now, just set hscTarget to HscNothing.
