GHC 8.4.1 support #931

Open xamgore opened 6 years ago

xamgore commented 6 years ago

There seems to have been no attempts to get ghc-mod working with 8.4.1; curious what the status of that work is. Thanks for this great software; now that I upgraded to 8.4.1, I'm really missing it!

varosi commented 6 years ago

Officially there is no 8.4.1, yet. (See https://www.haskell.org/ghc/) Currently there is only Release Candidate 1. Whole community is preparing for this release, which should be soon. But it's great that you're rising this issue!

DanielG commented 6 years ago

There isn't even 8.2 support yet, aren't we getting a little ahead of ourselves? :)

AFAIK nobody is working on this, I'd be happy to help any interested soul as usual but I don't have time to work on it myself.

I am sort of doing something here, working on https://github.com/alanz/cabal-helper/tree/ghc-8.4 and https://github.com/alanz/ghc-mod/tree/ghc-8.4.

My current goal is to get it working well enough that I can run the tests for HaRe.

cabal-helper compiles with GHC 8.4.1, but does not yet pass its tests.

And I now understand why I could not get it to run cabal-helper wrapper.

See https://github.com/haskell/cabal/issues/4509

EdmundsEcho commented 6 years ago

Are there any specific tasks that could be divided up to get ghc-mod compatible with 8.4?

alanz commented 6 years ago

You can try to use this branch : https://github.com/alanz/ghc-mod/tree/ghc-8.4-hie

We currently use that in haskell-ide-engine.

orome commented 6 years ago

Is there any timeline for this?

@alanz Your branch (along with https://github.com/alanz/cabal-helper/tree/master) works perfectly for me on GHC 8.4.3. Thank you so much!

varosi commented 6 years ago

Are there plans for that branch to be merged into master? На чт, 9.08.2018 г., 20:14 Mark Laws notifications@github.com написа:
