Summary:
This patch set adds support for extra syntax on -package and related
arguments which allow you to thin and rename modules from a package.
For example, this argument:
-package "base (Data.Bool as Bam, Data.List)"
adds two more modules into scope, Bam and Data.List, without adding
any of base's other modules to scope.
These flags are additive: so, for example, saying:
-hide-all-packages -package base -package "base (Data.Bool as Bam)"
will provide both the normal bindings for modules in base, as well as
the module Bam.
There is also a new debug flag -ddump-mod-map which prints the state
of the module mapping database. H = hidden, E = exposed (so for
example EH says the module in question is exported, but in a hidden
package.)
Module suggestions have been minorly overhauled to work better with reexports:
if you have -package "base (Data.Bool as Bam)" and mispell Bam, GHC
will suggest "Did you mean Bam (defined via package flags to be
base:Data.Bool)"; and generally you will get more accurate information.
Also, fix a bug where we suggest the -package flag when we really need
the -package-key flag.
NB: The renaming afforded here does *not* affect what wired in
symbols GHC generates. (But it does affect implicit prelude!)
ToDo: add 'hiding' functionality, to make it easier to support the alternative
prelude use-case.
ToDo: Cabal support
