Re: [Haskell-cafe] How to get Cabal to spit out a .a library suitable for linking into C/Objective-C

Did you figure out what you need to know?

Sadly, no.

If not, I would suggest asking this same question but on StackOverflow (assuming you haven't already asked there).

Great suggestion. Thanks!

Howdy,

I'm trying to figure out how to get Cabal configured to compile and link my Haskell code such that the code can be part of C and/or Objective-C code such that all the Haskell dependencies are rolled into a .a file and can be linked by a normal C linker (e.g., ld).

I've been through http://haskell.org/ghc/docs/6.12.2/html/users_guide/ffi-ghc.html#using-own-m... and the associated linked, but I'm unable to find out the Cabal incantation to output a library that's linkable into my other code. Any pointers or examples would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

David
