Hi, I have just tried to build wxhaskell on my Intel MacBook Pro, with OSX 10.4 and ghc-6.6.1.
This is how it went: Here are some notes on my attempt to compile wx-0.10.2 with ghc 6.6 on an Intel MacOS X 10.4 platform. Download wxMac-2.6.4.tar.gz from wx official home page. carried out the following steps: less INSTALL-MAC.txt mkdir osx-build cd osx-build/ ../configure --with-opengl make -j3 sudo make install then I tested some of the demo apps in-place, and that seemed to work well. 'bombs', 'life', etc: all seem to work well. then wxcore: cd wxcore-0.10.2 ./configure make sudo make install the I tried to build wx and discovered I needed a newer version of cabal. (slight detour while I install cabal 1.2.3) cd ../wx-0.10.2 runhaskell Setup.lhs configure runhaskell Setup.lhs build sudo runhaskell Setup.lhs install Then I copied the "hello" example from http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/quickstart.html, and it compiled fine! (Remembering the magic OSX incantation, it looks like this: ghc --make wxhello.hs /usr/local/wxhaskell/bin/macosx-app -v wxhello open wxhello.app/ ) But, it doesn't quite run fine. Where the button is supposed to be labelled 'Quit', it's labelled 'Q', and where the window itself is supposed to be labelled "Hello!", it's just labelled 'H'. So I tried some of the more complex demo apps, like 'ImageViewer.hs' from samples in the wxcore distribution. Similar weird behaviour. The window is called "I" not "ImageViewer". The error message dialog says "I Error" not "ImageViewer Error". The menus are titled "ImageViewer", "&", and "&". The first item in the ImageViewer menu, which should be "About ImageViewer" is just "&". If you select it you get a dialog box containing the two lines "A" and "T". If you run "Paint.hs", the "rotated text" which is suposed to be drawn just shows up as "r". Very very peculiar! Any pointers or suggestions?
