Following up on #439.
The Makefile makes it easy to build all the versions of HIE we have for different GHC versions.
It's intentionally sequenced with
&&, so that~/.local/bin/hiedoesn't get overwritten by another build (can one specify specific executable paths/names? with stack?)The reason for the redundant
~/.local/bin/hie-8.2is merely that it is using the mainstack.yaml, which I assume will be changed to a different GHC later on, and this will make sure we don't forget to add the8.2version of HIE.When we add new stack.yaml's or change GHC versions in the main config, we should update this accordingly.
This is meant to go with a wrapper script that automatically chooses the right version based on the GHC version of the project—PRs for those are under way to VSCode and Atom, and I'll update the README for the other editors after this.
