Sorry if I was misunderstood. There are two possible ways: - Sharing only 'data CompressParam', 'data DecompressParam', 'data Format' etc.. However as I need to get the parameters from library it would require zlib (haskell) < 0.7 (symbols are going to be hidden in 0.7 and Format & co. is not member of Eq class) - I copy 'data CompressParam', 'data DecompressParam' and 'data Format' from zlib (haskell) library making iteratee-compress independent of zlib. The only difference is that CompressParam from zlib library would not work as parameter to zlib and vice-versa. In both cases zlib (format) support is present. Regards PS. Sorry for confusion but 'zlib' may refer to - Format - C library that handles zlib format - Haskell library that uses C library to handle zlib format In any case format will be used with help of C library. The Haskell zlib library code cannot be used as iteratee-compress requires much more low-level API. However it can share types of configuration format.
