From 44a5d51a4892b85c7eba09dcb90ca02245637812 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tamar Christina Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2016 10:20:11 +0100 Subject: Enable RemoteGHCi on Windows Makes the needed changes to make RemoteGHCi work on Windows. The approach passes OS Handles areound instead of the Posix Fd as on Linux. The reason is that I could not find any real documentation about the behaviour of Windows w.r.t inheritance and Posix FDs. The implementation with Fd did not seem to be able to find the Fd in the child process. Instead I'm using the much better documented approach of passing inheriting handles. This requires a small modification to the `process` library. https://github.com/haskell/process/pull/52 Test Plan: ./validate On Windows x86_64 Reviewers: thomie, erikd, bgamari, simonmar, austin, hvr Reviewed By: simonmar Subscribers: #ghc_windows_task_force Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D1836 GHC Trac Issues: #11100 --- .gitignore | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to '.gitignore') diff --git a/.gitignore b/.gitignore index 5c2af906e9..bc95f12aec 100644 --- a/.gitignore +++ b/.gitignore @@ -73,6 +73,7 @@ _darcs/ /ghc/stage2/ /ghc/stage3/ /iserv/stage2*/ +/iserv/dist/ # ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- # specific generated files -- cgit v1.2.1
