Hi there.
I get the impression someone is working on this stuff from the changes in
CVS so you probably know about these problems, but just in case (and to
prove that it is all worthwhile, for you to do this stuff), here they are:
Using the latest Win32 GHC (thanks to Reuben for the ongoing work) and CVS
source for HDirect:
- Trying to build Hdirect straight from CVS has a number of dependency
problems. I find I have to do several iterations of make and make boot and
make lib. (Happy likewise has a crossdependency when bootstrapping without
installing a binary copy first)
- The dependency analysis seems to fail for IDLUtils.lhs - I have to do a
"make IDLUtils.hi"
- You have to build ihc.exe by bootstrapping without com first.
- make clean does not delete "src/ihc.exe"
- the com interface files seem to think they are in package main eg:
__interface "Main" PointerPrim 1 501 where
__export PointerPrim finalFreeMemory finalNoFree primAllocFrame
primAllocMemory primFinalise primFreeBSTR primFreeMemory primNoFree;
import Prelude :: 1;
import PrelBase ! :: 1;
import PrelWord :: 1;
import PrelIOBase :: 1;
and so at build time in the comcli example:

miketh@NASTURTIUM //e/cvs/ghc/hdirect/examples/comcli
$ make
/cygdrive/e/ghc/ghc-5.01/bin/ghc -fglasgow-exts -package
com -fno-warn-missing-m
ethods -O -c Quartz.hs -o Quartz.o
Quartz.hs:9:
Module `Automation' is located in package `com'
but its interface file claims it is part of package `Main'
Quartz.hs:13:
Module `Com' is located in package `com'
but its interface file claims it is part of package `Main'
make: *** [Quartz.o] Error 1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

- various minor source problems:

Cheers (and as usual thanks for the good work)
