Re: [Haskell-cafe] Re: gd on Win32

21 Jul 2010

      Hi Kevin,

You probably have to install the mingw versions of these libraries.
Should be trivial to do with mingw's installation manager. Or was that
cygwin? The one with the package manager. I haven't used Windows for a
while, apologies.

Is there an easy way to install this module on Windows?
I just ran
cabal install gd
and got the rather intimidating response:
Missing C libraries: gd, png, z, jpeg, fontconfig, freetype, expat
I actually have some of these libraries installed (eg. expat) but not
most.
I'm using MinGW.
Cheers,
Kevin

I was wondering the same thing about submitting patches to expose more
of the image functionality, including getting some functions to return
Either instead of failing with a runtime error. Let me know when you
get it set up.

That sounds like a good idea. I've setup a repo, I've merged in the
latest work I did on it, and I've just updated it to be latest
Prelude/base and to comply with -Wall. I'm just going to make it
consistent with tibbe's style guide[1] before we start patching it for
feature updates, so that we're singing from the same hymn sheet and
then I'll let you you here. The Github repo is here:

What's your Github username? I will add you as a project admin so that
you can push to it directly.
