Hello glasgow-haskell-users,
From the page:
How does C/Invoke compare to libFFI? At the C API level they're pretty similar, aside from some minor quibbles. libFFI has been around longer and is much more portable, but the last "release" was in 1998. Note that there are separate libffi releases again: http://sourceware.org/libffi/ libffi-3.0.8 was released on December 19, 2008. You can ftp it from ftp://sourceware.org/pub/libffi/libffi-3.0.8.tar.gz Duncan

Hello glasgow-haskell-users,
Is there a good reason to want an alternative to libffi? libffi works pretty well, and seems to be widely used and supported. Cheers, Simon
