The concept: You want to have the equivalent of dlopen(); i.e. be able to tell the Haskell runtime system to import a module and call functions in that module. As an example, say there's a function called adder:

Unfortunately, the big limitation of this is that we're going through the FFI to get things to work.

This kinda sucks because that means that the exported functions have to stick to exporting one of the prim_types (Int, Char, Float, Double, Ptr, StablePtr, and a few others).

So, is there some wizardry out there which allows using the RTS Linker to load up .o modules which are not created with the FFI? I've been experimenting with it, and I just get segfaults if I try to load the adder_closure, adder_entry, adder_fast1 or adder_info symbols.

Here's how I did it... load your main program _and_ modules into a linker shell program. Keean. Andre Pang wrote: trust.in.love.to.save
