I guess that would be too easy.It also doesn't explain why Cabal isn't finding include/WideStringSrc.h, even though that's the correct relative path to the file. I checked six times; it's definitely there.I also had a look around to see if there's any readme files in the Cabal package or any helpful hints on the package website. I found some example code, but nothing about how to get it to compile. :-( [Presumably because for the author it worked without doing anything special.]Compile with -v3 or so, to get full debugging output on the PATH and explicit paths being used.
I see several dozen lines like this:
("D:\\ghc\\ghc-6.10.3\\gcc.exe",["-BD:\\ghc\\ghc-6.10.3\\gcc-lib","-ID:\\ghc\\ghc-6.10.3\\include\\mingw","D:\\DOCUME~1\\Orphi\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\3192.c","-o","D:\\DOCUME~1\\Orphi\\LOCALS~1\\Temp\\3192","-lole32","--enable-stdcall-fixup","--disable-stdcall-fixup"])
D:\ghc\ghc-6.10.3\gcc.exe returned ExitFailure 1 with error message:
cc1.exe: error: unrecognized command line option "-fenable-stdcall-fixup"
cc1.exe: error: unrecognized command line option "-fdisable-stdcall-fixup"
So perhaps it's not that it can't find stuff, it's that it doesn't like
the strange options inserted from the Cabal file? It contains the
following gem:
-- I can't seem to feed this into the 'ld' invocation that creates the -- relocatable object file. Ld-options: --enable-stdcall-fixup --disable-stdcall-fixupPresumably the author did this for some sort of specific reason. I have no clue what though.
Have you contacted the author?
No, I hadn't actually thought of that... _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [email protected] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
