Re: [Haskell] Building a library for C users

You should be able to find information on this in the haskell wiki
(www.haskell.org). Searching for foreign will probably bring it up.

You'll probably end up having to link a static library - GHC doesn't
yet produce dynamic libraries, though there is work in that area going
on right now. Look for the Industrial Haskell Group blog for more.

[Haskell] Building a library for C users

Hiya all,
  I'm trying to build a library that can be called from C code.  The  
ghc manual implies that this can be done, but does not specify the  
compiler options that I need to throw at it, and into which files I  
should put initialisation/end routines.  Does anyone know the magic I  
need to invoke to get ghc to produce for me (a) a header file, (b)  
preferably a dynamic library, put a static one if all else fails.
