Switching to Haskell Cafe; I hope you read that list, John, since it
seems more suitable to this kind of question.

Hi, this is to announce the release of jhc 0.6.1. The jhc homepage with
distribution information is at http://repetae.net/computer/jhc/
The main new feature in this release is a much simplified
cross-compilation mechanism. While cross-compilation was always possible
with jhc, it used to involve manually copying the C file and calling gcc
with the right options on it, now this is taken care of by jhc.
A (popular) example would be setting up an iPhone cross compilation
target. For instance with the SDK setup I have, I would simply add the
following to a file ~/.jhc/targets.ini
[iphone]
cc=arm-apple-darwin
cflags+=-I/usr/local/arm-apple-darwin/include
merge=le32
then you can compile iphone binaries with
; jhc --cross -miphone HelloWorld.hs
the targets mechanism is extensible at run-time and I have included
native unix, win32, osx-intel and osx-powerpc targets. But certainly
many more interesting ones are possible. Some I have tested have been a
nokia N770 as a target and an atheros MIPS based router running dd-wrt.
Maximum coolness! When you were targeting the nokia, how did you handle
the radically different user interface? Did you have to establish a
mapping from one of the Haskell UI packages to the Nokia equivalents?
If so, which one did you pick, and how much time did it take?
I'd love it if I could get this working for the Palm....
