Where does GHCi search for DLLs?

When I do stack repl it fails to find the DLLs for a library that my project uses. I can fix this by placing them in the root of my package but this is unsatisfactory since I'd like them to be separated from my package.

Where does GHCi look for them?

Solution

  • I've found the answer here https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/latest/docs/html/users_guide/ghci-invocation.html

    Apparently GHCi searches the standard search path of the OS.
