synopsis: Support GHC 9.4's `clang`-based Windows toolchain | ||
packages: Cabal | ||
prs: #8062 | ||
|
||
description { | ||
|
||
- As the `lld` linker used by GHC 9.4 and later on Windows does not support | ||
object merging, it is now an error to enable `--enable-library-for-ghci` on | ||
Windows with such compilers. Note that this flag is merely enables an | ||
optimisation and can safely be disabled if you encounter this error. | ||
|
||
- `Cabal` will now use `llvm-ar`'s `L` modifier if available when building | ||
static archives. This enables static library merging which is the behavior | ||
required by GHC 9.4 and later on Windows. | ||
