[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: Haddock 2.4.2

-------------------------------------------- -- Haddock 2.4.2 -------------------------------------------- A new version of Haddock, the Haskell documentation tool, is out. This is a bug fix release only, and it's the same version that will ship with GHC 6.10.2, unless any important problems are discovered before the GHC release. Because the .haddock file format has changed, links to previously installed documentation will not work when generating documentation using this version. Please use the bug tracker to submit bug reports or feature requests. -------------------------------------------- -- Changes in version 2.4.2 -------------------------------------------- * Support for GHC 6.10.2 * Haddock no longer crashes on Template Haskell modules (#68) (only with GHC 6.10.2 or above) * Fix problem with Template Haskell-generated declarations disappearing (#59) * Generate two anchors for each link for compatibility between IE and Opera (#45) * Improved error messages * Show re-exports from external packages again (GHC ticket #2746) * Store hidden modules in .haddock files again (needed by the haddock library) * Avoid processing boot modules * Pragmas may exist between document comments and declarations * Do not indicate that a constructor argument is unboxed * Fix problem with non-working links to ghc-prim * Allow referring to a specific section within a module in a module link (#65) * Fixes to the Hoogle backend * Improvements to the haddock library * Many other fixes (including #67, #69, #58, #57) -------------------------------------------- -- Links -------------------------------------------- Homepage: http://www.haskell.org/haddock Hackage page: http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/haddock-2.4.2 Bugtracker and wiki: http://trac.haskell.org/haddock Mailing list: haddock at projects.haskell.org Code repository: http://code.haskell.org/haddock -------------------------------------------- -- Contributors -------------------------------------------- The following people contributed patches to this release: Joachim Breitner Roman Cheplyaka Ian Lynagh Neil Mitchell Simon Peyton-Jones Thomas Schilling David Waern -------------------------------------------- -- Get Involved -------------------------------------------- We welcome new contributors.
