RE: linking with c++ libraries

| To reliably link with C++, you need to compile both the code | which invokes C++ (i.e. whatever uses the C++ library) and | "main" (that is, ghc/rts/Main.c, not main.hs) with a C++ compiler. | | So, in summary: | | - Compile any code which may call the C++ library (and keep | inter-module inlining in mind; probably safest to compile | all of your code this way) via C, and compile the C with g++. | | - Re-compile the run-time system (at least Main.c) with | g++, too. | | That may not fix your specific core dump, but you'll need to | do this anyway. After some discussion in the GHC office, we're unsure about why you need to compile Main.c with a C++ compiler for this to work. Pls can you clarify? J
