Fields

• ghcMode :: GhcMode
   
• ghcLink :: GhcLink
   
• backend :: !Backend

  The backend to use (if any).

  Whenever you change the backend, also make sure to set ghcLink to something sensible.

  NoBackend can be used to avoid generating any output, however, note that:

  • If a program uses Template Haskell the typechecker may need to run code from an imported module. To facilitate this, code generation is enabled for modules imported by modules that use template haskell, using the default backend for the platform. See Note [-fno-code mode].
