ghc --make deletes source file in Windows
I’ve a very strange problem that may be related to my
computer.
If I compile a file with ghc -–make from outside the
directory where the source file is, using \ as the path
separator, the file gets deleted. (Using Windows 2000
and GHC 6.0)
For example:
F:\>cat > project\test.hs
module Main where
main = putStrLn "Hello"
F:\>ghc --make project/test.hs
Chasing modules from: project/test.hs
Compiling Main ( project/test.hs,
project/test.o )
Linking ...
F:\>ghc --make project\test.hs
Chasing modules from: project\test.hs
Skipping Main ( project/test.hs, project/test.o )
Linking ...
F:\>ghc --make project\test.hs
Chasing modules from: project\test.hs
ghc: can't find file `project\test.hs'
And indeed the file is no longer there!
