Hi, thanks for the report. First off, I should say that the 5.02 release didn't focus on DLL production at all, so I'm not too surprised you're coming across a gremlin or two.
However, I'm not able to reproduce the break you're experiencing, my --mk-dll tests break much earlier than that. If you could provide more info on the exact steps you followed, I'd appreciate it. The nature of the bug I'm coming across is bad enough to render --mk-dll unusable with 5.02.1, I'm afraid. The next release (and the CVS repo sources) will include a fix. Thanks for pointing out the omission of 'dllwrap'; it should of course be included. hth --sigbjorn ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ronald Legere" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, November 30, 2001 20:42 Subject: Building dlls with ghc > Dear haskellers, > I have been trying to build a dll that has haskell > functions in it, but it doesnt seem to be working in > the latest 5.02.1 windows installer version. > First, > ghc --mk-dll ...... > Doesnt do anything since it cannot find dllwrap, > which > doesnt come with the windows installer. > > Then, since I have cygwin (ver 1.3.5) i can put > cygwin/bin on my path and try that, but not > suprisingly that fails :) dllwrap runs fine, but then > the linker complains about multiple definitions of > __main, in particular from libm.a(d000027.0) and > libmingw32.a(gccmain.o).
