Hi.

One last thing: is it possible to define "macros" in Cabal? In my package, I have n executables, that have many dependencies in common. I would like to avoid having to repeat the same dependencies for each executable block.Thanks Manlio Perillo
You can hoist the common build-depends out of the executable stanzas. ie. from xmonad-utils.cabal: build-depends: base<4, X11>=1.3, ghc>=6.8, unix, random>=1.0 ... executable: hxsel main-is: Hxsel.hs hs-source-dirs: src ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -Wall ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all executable: hxput main-is: Hxput.hs hs-source-dirs: src ghc-options: -funbox-strict-fields -Wall ghc-prof-options: -prof -auto-all .... Notice that though hxput and hxsel need the packages in the top-level build-depends, they don't need to declare it. -- gwern
