Build failing for GHCJS project: The symbol `JSCheckScriptSyntax' does not fit here

1

In my project that uses reflex-dom for creating an UI I get an error since the last few days when building the project using GHC. The build with GHCJS still works. However, this causes autocomplete in VS Code to be completely not working for the UI project.
This is the error:

Failed to build webkit2gtk3-javascriptcore-0.14.4.6.

Versions:

$ ghc --version
The Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System, version 9.12.2
$ cabal --version
cabal-install version 3.14.1.1
compiled using version 3.14.1.1 of the Cabal library

We donā€™t have a direct dependency on the package only through reflex-dom.
I already opened an issue with the package directly, however I suspect that it will not get resolved quickly.
That the build with GHC does not work wouldnā€™t be such a problem if autocomplete would still work. However, it uses cabal v2-repl internally which fails when building this package.

Do you have any idea on how we can resolve this issue?
Or at least how we can get autocomplete working again? Only the GHCJS build is relevant for us.
I assume there is no way for us to not indirectly depend on webkitgtk? We do not need this functionality.

Any help is greatly appreciated as this is quite a blocking issue because coding without autocomplete is not so much fun :slight_smile:

What do you mean with ā€œautocompleteā€? HLS?

Yes correct: HLS.
I get the following error in VSCode:

Which is the same as from cabal build. I just upgraded the compiler from 9.10.2 to 9.12.2 (because of the compiled size GHC JS Backend - Improve compiled size - #17 by panmona). Thatā€™s why the log contains an additional error regarding GI Soup in cabal build / v2-repl:

I donā€™t think HLS works with GHCJS.

HLS is essentially a compiler. And the HLS binaries are built for your host architecture. GHCJS is a cross compiler in contrast.

Okay. In that case we need to get the GHC build working in some way again.
Iā€™m not sure what exactly made this breakā€¦

6

What Iā€™m doing in my projects (but not necessarily possible in your case) is I write the whole project in GHC with small js bits hidden behind CPP (or if pragmas in cabal file), and use HLS on it. Then the JS builds uses a separate cabal.project that points to ghcjs.

Thanks for the suggestion!
However, Iā€™m not sure this would help here. We use reflex-dom for the whole UI which depends on the library that is not buildable. And having HLS for this part of the code was truly crucial so far.

Fortunately the other parts of our project donā€™t depend on reflex-dom and are therefore independently buildable and therefore have support by HLS.

For context: haskell-halogen uses MonadDOM abstraction which hides DOM building primitives, and instance for IO is only given under CPP.

Interesting! Do you know of any way to get this behaviour for reflex-dom? Or would we need to do a change in reflex-dom for this?

Donā€™t think this is a reflex-dom problem, I replied in your issue

You are my hero, thank you for your insights and quick help in the issue! I now got it to work so that it does not need to build webkitgtk because we donā€™t need it for our project. I created the following cabal.project file:

packages: .

constraints: reflex-dom +use-warp -webkit2gtk

The error shown in the HLS logs seems to be Couldn't compile gi-soup2 - MessageHeadersIter (double) pointer types Ā· Issue #472 Ā· haskell-gi/haskell-gi Ā· GitHub.
We just started running into it in nixpkgs
