Hi Alexander,
I am using bitmap-0.2 [1] to load a Bitmap file [2]. However, the following sample GHCi session fails for me.
(...)
Prelude Data.Bitmap Data.Bitmap.Pure.File> readBitmap "b.bmp" :: IO (Bitmap Word8) *** Exception: decodeCType: unexpected integer (7077888)
I don't have any idea where 7077888 comes from. Am I doing something wrong? Is my bitmap corrupted in some way? The number 7077888 has no apparent significance except that it is a perfect cube [3]. So I guess this is not a problem with endianness.
Sorry, no personal experience with Data.Bitmap...
In case it's a hint, decimal 7077888 is 0x006C0000, and 6C is ascii code for "l".
HTH (?).
