file name does not match module name `Main'

[anonymous]

At least an orthografical error: dependency graph.

Furthermore, i don't understand the error: why haddock has to create a dependency graph?

Could you please provide a little bit more information?

Haddock has to create a dependency graph since it typechecks all modules using the GHC API. Actually, it is the GHC that creates the dependency graph.

Ok, I'm sorry, I will put a little bit more information. I tried

haddock --html \
	 -o doc  \
         --optghc=-cpp \
	 Main.hs

and got the following error-message:

Effects/ILCUtils.hs:1:0:
    file name does not match module name `Main'
haddock: Failed to create dependecy graph

For the file in the error messages I didn't want to generate documentation, furthermore the program compiles with ghc, so i don't understand the error.

I couldn't isolate the error, sorry. Of course to change "dependecy" to "dependency" is trivial, the error I reported now maybe not.

Greetings, Martin

Seems like Main.hs is dependent of the module ILCUtils.hs, so Haddock is trying to include it in the dependency graph. And it seems like ILCUtils.hs defines the module Main. So I'm a little bit confused. Do you have two Main modules?

To tell Haddock which module is the Main module, you can use --optghc=-main-is --optghc=module.

When you compiled using GHC, what command line flags did you use exactly?

Ah, I will correct this spelling error. Thanks.

This is what fails for me (in Test/Fail.hs):

{- # LANGUAGE CPP #-}
module Test.Fail
