ghc-mod crash, probably when no cabal file in super directory of project

[andrewufrank]

i have the impression this error occurs twice and seems related to the lack of a cabal file in the super directory of project. it is a mulitpackage project similar in structure to the example (in a single project, not loaded as two projects).

[lierdakil]

A workaround here might be running Atom with stack exec atom in superproject directory, I'm not entirely sure. This boils down to one simple fact really, ghc-mod doesn't support stack superprojects too well at the moment, and fixing that is not as straightforward as one would like. So... yeah. Sorry I can't be of more help right now.

[andrewufrank]

i moved to the structure with multiple project loaded independently (similar problems). i may go back and try your suggestion.
thank you for the efforts - i hope ghc-mod can be fixed to work with larger (multi-package) projects soon!
