Hi, I am trying to compile the Test.hs form reactive-fieltrip. I did: ghc --make Test (22:09) [1 of 3] Compiling FRP.Reactive.FieldTrip.Adapter ( FRP/Reactive/FieldTrip/Adapter.hs, FRP/Reactive/FieldTrip/Adapter.o ) [2 of 3] Compiling FRP.Reactive.FieldTrip ( FRP/Reactive/FieldTrip.hs, FRP/Reactive/FieldTrip.o ) [3 of 3] Compiling Test ( Test.hs, Test.o ) Wonderfull, only it is not giving me an executable, only Test.o. It has a main function, so how can I compile it? Thanks! nathan

To compile an executable, tack on -o

Hey,
Thank you for the answer. Now I get:
ghc --make Test -o Test
Warning: output was redirected with -o, but no output will be
generated because there is no Main module.
How am I supposed to comple this file?

, so for instance, ghc --make HelloWorld.hs -o HelloWorld creates an executable called `HelloWorld'. -deech

Nathan, You must put the .hs on the input filename, but the '-o Test' isn't necessary. So you can type ghc --make Test.hs I took a look at this file, and the module name is 'Test'. If you change it to 'Main' it should work. I think this requirement was tightened up in newer versions of ghc. Steve On 09/06/10 15:36, Nathan Huesken wrote:

The .hs isn't necessary either. Here's the real answer: you simply need to add a -main-is flag to tell ghc that the module containing 'main' is not called 'Main'. So: ghc --make Test -main-is Test should do the trick. -Brent On Wed, Jun 09, 2010 at 03:47:55PM +1200, Stephen Blackheath [to Haskell-Beginners] wrote:

Hey,
Thanks, it compiles now.
But when I run it, I get a empty window not updating itself ...
Does the Test.hs from reactive-fieldtrip run correctly anywhere else?
Is reactive-fieldtrip up to date or is it outdated? (The last update is
May 2009 ...).
Regards,
Nathan
