It would be nice to just have some small general information about how
language support is implemented in nix.
( Just examples, I haven't looked at the details, they might be plain
wrong )
EG:
C/C++:
the include directories are just $out/include
$out/lib
Java:
$out/lib/jars/
$out/...
Haskell:
GHC: $out/nix-support/package.conf
to collect all dependency libraries just do
source $ghcPkgUtil/nix-support/ghcPkgUtil.sh
exportGHC_PACKAGE_PATH
....
I think this would not be much effort but help a lot when writing/
reading builders ...
Where would the right place be to put this documentation?
In an Appendix at the nix manual?
