Distribution.Simple.Configure

Perform the "./setup configure" action.

Returns the LocalBuildInfo, also writing it to the setup-config file.

Run the Cabal library configure phase.

NB: this function does not persist the resulting LocalBuildInfo to the setup-config file; that is the responsibility of callers.

Like computePackageInfo but takes a given InstalledPackageIndex instead of needing to query the hc-pkg program to obtain it.

Adds the extra program paths from the flags provided to configure as well as specified locations for certain known programs and their default arguments.

After running configure, output the LocalBuildInfo to the localBuildInfoFile.

Read the localBuildInfoFile. Throw an exception if the file is missing, if the file cannot be read, or if the file was created by an older version of Cabal.

Read the localBuildInfoFile. Throw an exception if the file is missing, if the file cannot be read, or if the file was created by an older version of Cabal.

Check that localBuildInfoFile is up-to-date with respect to the .cabal file.

Try to read the localBuildInfoFile.

Return the "dist/" prefix, or the default prefix. The prefix is taken from (in order of highest to lowest preference) the override prefix, the "CABAL_BUILDDIR" environment variable, or the default prefix.

Return the "dist/" prefix, or the default prefix. The prefix is taken from (in order of highest to lowest preference) the override prefix, the "CABAL_BUILDDIR" environment variable, or defaultDistPref is used. Call this function to resolve a *DistPref flag whenever it is not known to be set. (The *DistPref flags are always set to a definite value before invoking UserHooks.)

Create a PackageIndex that makes *any libraries that might be* defined internally to this package look like installed packages, in case an executable should refer to any of them as dependencies.

It must be *any libraries that might be* defined rather than the actual definitions, because these depend on conditionals in the .cabal file, and we haven't resolved them yet. finalizePD does the resolution of conditionals, and it takes internalPackageSet as part of its input.

This method computes a default, "good enough" ComponentId for a package. The intent is that cabal-install (or the user) will specify a more detailed IPID via the --ipid flag if necessary.

In GHC 8.0, the string we pass to GHC to use for symbol names for a package can be an arbitrary, IPID-compatible string. However, prior to GHC 8.0 there are some restrictions on what format this string can be (due to how ghc-pkg parsed the key):

1. In GHC 7.10, the string had either be of the form foo_ABCD, where foo is a non-semantic alphanumeric/hyphenated prefix and ABCD is two base-64 encoded 64-bit integers, or a GHC 7.8 style identifier.

2. In GHC 7.8, the string had to be a valid package identifier like foo-0.1.

So, the problem is that Cabal, in general, has a general IPID, but needs to figure out a package key / package ID that the old ghc-pkg will actually accept. But there's an EVERY WORSE problem: if ghc-pkg decides to parse an identifier foo-0.1-xxx as if it were a package identifier, which means it will SILENTLY DROP the "xxx" (because it's a tag, and Cabal does not allow tags.) So we must CONNIVE to ensure that we don't pick something that looks like this.

So this function attempts to define a mapping into the old formats.

The mapping for GHC 7.8 and before:

• We use the *compatibility* package name and version. For public libraries this is just the package identifier; for internal libraries, it's something like "z-pkgname-z-libname-0.1". See computeCompatPackageName for more details.

The mapping for GHC 7.10:

• For CLibName: If the IPID is of the form foo-0.1-ABCDEF where foo_ABCDEF would validly parse as a package key, we pass ABCDEF. (NB: not all hashes parse this way, because GHC 7.10 mandated that these hashes be two base-62 encoded 64 bit integers), but hashes that Cabal generated using computeComponentId are guaranteed to have this form.

  If it is not of this form, we rehash the IPID into the correct form and pass that.

• For sub-components, we rehash the IPID into the correct format and pass that.

Get the path of dist/setup-config.

List all installed packages in the given package databases. Non-existent package databases do not cause errors, they just get skipped with a warning and treated as empty ones, since technically they do not contain any package.

A set of files (or directories) that can be monitored to detect when there might have been a change in the installed packages.

Looks up the InstalledPackageInfo of the given UnitIds from the PackageDBStack in the LocalBuildInfo.

Like getInstalledPackages, but for a single package DB.

NB: Why isn't this always a fall through to getInstalledPackages? That is because getInstalledPackages performs some sanity checks on the package database stack in question. However, when sandboxes are involved these sanity checks are not desirable.

Configure the compiler ONLY.

Configure the compiler and associated programs such as hc-pkg, haddock and toolchain program such as ar, ld.

Configure programs associated to the compiler, such as hc-pkg, haddock and toolchain program such as ar, ld.

Compute the effective value of the profiling flags --enable-library-profiling and --enable-executable-profiling from the specified ConfigFlags. This may be useful for external Cabal tools which need to interact with Setup in a backwards-compatible way: the most predictable mechanism for enabling profiling across many legacy versions is to NOT use --enable-profiling and use those two flags instead.

Note that --enable-executable-profiling also affects profiling of benchmarks and (non-detailed) test suites.

Adjust BuildOptions to be compatible with the given Compiler and ProgramDb.

See also adjustBuildOptionsAndWarn, which additionally informs the user of unavailable requested features via warning messages.

Warnings to emit after downgrading BuildOptions when the compiler (or another toolchain program) doesn't support a requested feature.

Like adjustBuildOptions, but includes warnings for downgraded build options.

Makes a BuildInfo from C compiler and linker flags.

This can be used with the output from configuration programs like pkg-config and similar package-specific programs like mysql-config, freealut-config etc. For example:

ccflags <- getDbProgramOutput verbosity prog progdb ["--cflags"]
ldflags <- getDbProgramOutput verbosity prog progdb ["--libs"]
ldflags_static <- getDbProgramOutput verbosity prog progdb ["--libs", "--static"]
return (ccldOptionsBuildInfo (words ccflags) (words ldflags) (words ldflags_static))

The user interface specifies the package dbs to use with a combination of --global, --user and --package-db=global|user|clear|$file. This function combines the global/user flag and interprets the package-db flag into a single package db stack.

The errors that can be thrown when reading the setup-config file.

Read the localBuildInfoFile, returning either an error or the local build info.
