Hi wxhaskell-users mailinglist, Uuhm, I didn't know that 'darcs send' directly transmits the email :o (and apparantly, the mailer on my machine doesn't know my email address)
The reason I send these patches is as follows: I tried to compile wxHaskell on x86_64 gentoo linux, but that failed. With these patches I can build, install and run wxHaskell (although I have to configure with --with-opengl otherwise ghc complains about missing symbols when run with -package wx). I encountered two problems: (1) I had to add the -fPIC option to the CXX flags in the make file, otherwise during linking, the "make" (wxcore) fails, as it requires locatable .o files to produce a dynamic library. (2) Made a few fixes in the code with respect to 64bit compatiblity. I hope I didn't make changes in generated C-code... Hope you can do something with it... All the best, Arie On Wed, 2006-11-15 at 13:22 +0100, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Wed Nov 15 13:10:06 CET 2006 Arie Middelkoop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > * Added the -fPIC compiler flag to CXX options in the makefile. > > Apparantly, my platform (gentoo x86_64 linux) required that .o files are > "relocatable" when there > are linked into a dynamic library. > > (It might be an idea to use libtool to hide this kind of platform-specific > details) > > > Wed Nov 15 13:14:08 CET 2006 Arie Middelkoop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > * Compiling wxHaskell on a 64bits platform fails, because there > are some assumptions in the code that assume that integers are > 32bits.
