I am pleased to announce the availability of version 0.8.1 of the interface generator C->Haskell. It works with the current stable release series 4.08.x of GHC as well as the current development series 4.11. For both versions of GHC, it supports the *same* FFI library that GHC natively only supports in the development version 4.11 and which constitutes the result of the work of the FFI Task Force over the last couple of months. The interface specification of the library is online available at http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/c2hs/docu/c2hs-4.html For more information on C->Haskell and for downloading, see http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/c2hs/ The main feature in this release is the new FFI library. It should allow users of the GHC stable series to use the new FFI library interface, which we hope to keep stable from now on. An update of the C->Haskell tool proper is being worked at. Happy Hacking, Manuel
