Common stanzas are not understood

What about using Cabal to do the parsing?

[Avi-D-coder]

We can't depend on cabal because it's a very large dependency and hie-bios can't depend on cabal.

There are a few moreknown bugs having to due with generating cabal hie.yamls, try again tomorrow if you're having issues.

Cabal-fmt implemented a full cabal parser if ours gets to complex I look in to using theirs

[Avi-D-coder]

Can you post the cabal file that fails?

[jchia]

Nothing complicated or surprising. The hs-source-dirs is not picked up from the common stanza.

cabal-version: 2.2

name:           test
version:        0.1.0.0
description:    test
category:       test
build-type:     Simple

common common
  default-language: Haskell2010
  hs-source-dirs: app

executable test
  import: common
  main-is: test.hs
  build-depends:
      base

Thanks. This is not currently a priority, but I will get to it eventually

Should be fixed by #48

[Avi-D-coder]

@fendor I don't think it's fixed.
I tested it locally, and it did not work.
