Volunteers who would like to help out are most definitely welcome.
As you said Linux is mostly complete and even ghci seems work last time I checked. As far as Windows is concerned: The wrapper work I merged in January -- which most of you surely didn't notice, as I never got around to properly announce/document that (sorry) -- should provide a base for launching Windows/Mac OS dynamic binaries. When you add "GhcLibWays = dyn" to your build.mk, it should produce working DLLs for all core libraries and the RTS. make WAY=dyn in testsuite should run the testsuite. I have a few patches sitting in my local repo (mostly related to the low-bit indirection hack) that might be needed to get windows going, but I'm not sure about that. I'll try to clean them up and send them to the list. Also the C file which is used to compile the small wrapper should be deployed properly (my plan was stick it into the rts directory) -- Fruhwirth Clemens - http://clemens.endorphin.org _______________________________________________ Cvs-ghc mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-ghc
