[Haskell-cafe] using ghc as a library

[Thomas Schilling]

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to do.  But for what it's

  setTarget [Target (TargetFile "foo/blah.hs") True Nothing]

see http://code.haskell.org/~nominolo/html/ghc/GHC.html#v%3AsetTargets

Here're GHC's current haddocks (for HEAD):
