Hi,

I had a similar (unsolved) problem with GLUT but on my system (Windows XP + GHC 6.8.2) GLFW works fine, exiting is no problem at all.

But when building GLFW, make sure that the GHC gcc-lib directory comes *before* the MinGW/Cygwin directory in your PATH environment variable, since when linking, the LD.EXE bundled with GHC *must* be used.

Cheers,
Peter

L.S.,

I am trying GLUT and GLFW (on Windows XP, with GHC 6.8.2); the sample programs do not terminate when I close the window by clicking on the cross in the upper right corner of the window.

The sample program for GLUT is at
http://blog.mikael.johanssons.org/archive/2006/09/opengl-programming-in-haskell-a-tutorial-part-1/
the GLFW program:
  http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/GLFW

I tried in the GLUT program:
  close = exitWith ExitSuccess

closeCallback $= Just close -- => User error (unknown GLUT call getCloseFunc, check for freeglut)

this needs freeglut (not documented); I downloaded freeglut.dll and placed it in the windows\system32 directory. The error message remained.

What is needed to let these programs terminate properly?
