It has bitrotted to some extent. In Visual Haskell we use HaskellDirect-generated interfaces with a lot of hacking by hand to make it work, I don't believe we can re-generate the source files from IDL any more.

Hmm. Before I read this mail, I think you change only non-generated source files. So If I write better Setup.(l)hs file or, add H/Direct's ihc and apply different option file by file support, I can made newer cabalised version HDirect package - just replace source files. Anyway, I think that ihc - an IDL compiler for Haskell - support for Cabal is useful. So I send mail, this time. I already made initial that ... but if make buildable Haskell source file, I have to use different option one by one, like this; = lib/Makefile = WideString_IHC_OPTS += -fno-imports -fno-export-lists -fkeep-hresult -fout-pointers-are-not-refs PointerPrim_IHC_OPTS += -fkeep-hresult -fout-pointers-are-not-refs = comlib/Makefile = AutoPrim_IHC_OPTS += -fno-imports -fno-export-lists -fhs-to-c -fno-overload-variant -fout-pointers-are-not-refs -fsubtyped-interface-pointers ComPrim_IHC_OPTS += -fno-imports -fno-export-lists -fout-pointers-are-not-refs WideString_IHC_OPTS += -fno-imports -fno-export-lists -fkeep-hresult -fout-pointers-are-not-refs PointerPrim_IHC_OPTS += -fkeep-hresult -fout-pointers-are-not-refs StdTypes_IHC_OPTS += -fno-export-list -fno-gen-variant-instances -fout-pointers-are-not-refs --gen-headers SafeArray_IHC_OPTS += -fhs-to-c -fno-export-lists --gen-headers -fout-pointers-are-not-refs --gen-headers TypeLib_IHC_OPTS += -fno-export-list -fappend-interface-short-name -fno-overload-variant --gen-headers Connection_IHC_OPTS += -fappend-interface-short-name and I didn't support this feature yet. If you use atttached hdirect.cabal file, after applied cabal-ihc-support.patch for darcs repository, you can see compile error from generated file.
