Hi,
I am in a situation where it would be very useful to call C functions
without an explicit FFI import. For example, I'd like to be able to do
(foreign import ccall "cadd" :: CInt -> CInt -> CInt) 1 2
instead of declaring the foreign import explicitely at the top level.
Is there a way to do this or to achieve similar results in some other
way?
If not, I imagine it would be easy to implement such a facility in GHC,
given that the code implementing calling to C functions must already be
present to implement "proper" FFI imports. I think such an addition
would be useful in many cases.
Thanks,
Francesco
