# @BLURB: for packages that make use of the Haskell Common Architecture for Building Applications and Libraries (cabal)
# @DESCRIPTION:
# Basic instructions:
#
# Before inheriting the eclass, set CABAL_FEATURES to
# reflect the tools and features that the package makes
# use of.
#
# Currently supported features:
#   haddock    --  for documentation generation
#   hscolour   --  generation of colourised sources
#   hoogle     --  generation of documentation search index
#   alex       --  lexer/scanner generator
#   happy      --  parser generator
#   c2hs       --  C interface generator
#   cpphs      --  C preprocessor clone written in Haskell
#   profile    --  if package supports to build profiling-enabled libraries
#   bootstrap  --  only used for the cabal package itself
#   bin        --  the package installs binaries
#   lib        --  the package installs libraries
#   nocabaldep --  don't add dependency on cabal.
#                  only used for packages that _must_ not pull the dependency
#                  on cabal, but still use this eclass (e.g. haskell-updater).
#   ghcdeps    --  constraint dependency on package to ghc onces
#                  only used for packages that use libghc internally and _must_
#                  not pull upper versions
#   test-suite --  add support for cabal test-suites (introduced in Cabal-1.8)
