Dear Cafe,
is it possible to specify include-dirs and extra-lib-dirs
for a dependency?
I have
* top-level project A, depends on:
* project B, depends on:
* C: external library (written in C)
I am building A with stack. I don't want to put
fixed locations (include/lib) for C in B.cabal,
because it depends on the (top-level) build environment of A
(e.g., my machine, or CI).
Concrete example: C = kissat SAT solver, B = Haskell API for C.
I know that, e.g., https://hackage.haskell.org/package/minisat
works around this problem by vendoring (is this the word?)
the solver's code (into B). I don't want this.
With cabal.project, I could set options for (all?) dependencies?
https://cabal.readthedocs.io/en/3.4/cabal-project.html#foreign-function-interface-options
Would stack use this setting (will it read that file at all)?
Will I have to copy all extra-deps source repo locations
to cabal.project?
- J.
