What I do for GLFW is use a dylib, then you don't rely on GHCi's static-ish linker. The only wrinkle is figuring out where you want the dylib. I think homebrew will put one in /usr/local/lib, which works out nicely, but they don't have GLFW 3 yet. Another option is to build the dylib

[Haskell-cafe] Quick Angel User's Survey

Hey Cafe, I am the maintainer of Angel, the process monitoring daemon. Angel's job is to start a configured set of processes and restart them when they go away. I was responding to a ticket and realized that the correct functionality is not obvious in one case, so I figured I'd ask the

My problem with cucumber is not the idea of a high-level DSL for tests. Au contraire--I think this is a perfect place for a little language. I could easily see a similar tool being useful for Haskell. Rather, my issue is with the syntax. Not gherkin in particular but rather languages that try to

Hello, Michael. I'm a potential angel user, and I'd like to add a possibility of optional angel usage as a supervisor for openrc services, when I'll have time. Common practise is: send SIGTERM for a couple of times, then send SIGQUIT for a couple of times, then SIGKILL. You will need to wait

Can you try running the setup script manually? ghc --make Setup.hs ./Setup configure and see if it prints an error that's any more helpful? Also, what operating system and version of ghc do you have? -Judah On Sat, Sep 14, 2013 at 1:57 PM, David Banas capn.fre...@gmail.com wrote: Has
