Great! Simon M is going to take a look when he has a moment. Meanwhile I'd like to
encourage those of you who are keen on this stuff [Duncan, Andre?] to write up
(a) how to use it (in SGML, to add to the user manual); see
fptools/ghc/docs/using
(b) how it is implemented (in HTML, to add to the GHC Commentary),
including not only the new stuff, but what you know about
the existing stuff
see fptools/ghc/docs/comm
(c) patches for what needs to change in the GHC and/or libraries
code base to support it
That way it'll get into our main code base and get maintained. Simon M has way too
much to do!
Simon

| Subject: Dynamic/runtime loading with GHC
|
| Hi all,
|
| I've whipped up an example tarball of how to do "runtime loading"
| (similar to dynamic loading, a.k.a. dlopen() or LoadLibrary()) in
| GHC. You can find it here:
|
| http://www.algorithm.com.au/wiki/hacking/haskell.ghc_runtime_loading
|
| It's a little example stdin text filter program, that loads in .o
| and .so "plugins" at runtime. New in version 1.1 is the ability
| to load .so files as plugins :). I think that with a bit more
| polish, we may even be able to rename this to a dynamic loader
| one day.
|
| Have fun!
