Re: [Haskell-cafe] installing Network on windows
it is easier if you use msys then in msys window, run ghc setup configure after that you can run ghc setup build etc in normal dos window without further recourse to msys Neil Mitchell wrote: Hi, I managed this with the following sequence of commands: http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/libraries/2010-February/013038.html Thanks, Neil On Wed, Mar 17, 2010 at 9:44 PM, Niklas Larsson nikl...@ymail.com wrote: Hi!

Now I'm sure some kind soul somewhere has probably compiled a Win32 binary for it, but I would suggest that the build will just immediately trip over again because some *other* Unix-only tool isn't available. How to fix? Well, I'm guessing you'll be forced to install some kind of Unix emulation layer such as Cygwin.

Hi Maciej I'll second this - for building Haskell FFI bindings to C libraries MSYS / MinGW is usually better (provided you can get the original C library working of course). And the Network package that the original poster wants to use is, in part, a C binding.

Hi! It needs some shell, if you install MSYS from mingw and do the cabal install from there it will work just fine.
