Hmake is an intelligent compilation management tool for Haskell
|
|
programs. It automatically extracts dependencies between source
|
|
modules, and issues the appropriate compiler commands to rebuild only
|
|
those that have changed, given just the name of the program or module
|
|
that you want to build. Yes, you need never write a Makefile again!
|
|
|
|
A particular benefit is that hmake knows about interface (.hi) files.
|
|
Even though a source module has changed, if its interface file has not
|
|
changed, then other modules which import it do not need to be
|
|
recompiled.
|
|
|
|
Hmake is compiler-independent, although it is based on some earlier
|
|
compiler-specific tools (hbcmake, lmlmake, nhc13make). The
|
|
installation process automatically detects which Haskell compilers you
|
|
have, and sets up hmake to use any of them.
