Hi, I am currently trying to create a Haskell interface to a C++ library and cannot get it to work completely. The problem seems to be that the linker must be able to find the code for basic C++ constructs like new and throw. Apparently it is able to do so when compiling an executable, but when I try to do the same with ghci it fails. Anybody have an idea why this happens and what to do about it? A second question, The feature to install local packages is currently a bit awkward. I would like to be able to simply use a local package the same way I use a normal package, and my first try was to set the package-conf file in my .ghci file. But this doesn't work very well for two reasons: (1) it only works for the interpreter, but not for the compiler (2) it isn't read until *after* the command line is read, so any packages given there is not recognized. Is it possible to have a common (.ghc) file that is used for both the compiler and the interpreter, and that is read *before* the command line is interpreted? /Niklas
