GHCi doesn't load hierachical modules Orphi "On Windows, if you double-click a `*.hs` file, GHCi starts up and loads the corresponding module. Usually this works fine, however... it seems to trip over on hierachical module names. Specifically: * Create file `Foo\Bar.hs` containing a module `Foo.Bar` that imports `Foo.Baz`. * Create file `Foo\Baz.hs` containing a module `Foo.Baz`. * Double-click on `Foo\Bar.hs`; GHCi whines that it can't find `Foo.Baz` in the search path. This happens regardless of whether either of the modules is compiled or not. An easy work-around is to invoke GHCi from the command prompt with the CWD below the `Foo` folder. But it's kind of tedious to have to do that. Note that if `Foo.Bar` doesn't import anything (or only modules from packages) then it works just fine. GHCi just doesn't seem to be able to find source files in the current folder if they have hierachical names." feature request new lowest 7.6.2 GHCi 6.10.1 Windows x86 Unknown
