*.hi files are analogous to C's *.h files, except that the compiler generates them.
Thanks, I learned something new today.
You mentioned later that you don't have any *.hi files, so I'm guessing you didn't compile RC4.hs before you compiled prng.hs.
Correct. I didn't know I had to :-)
If I'm right, you need to do something like this first:
$ nhc98 -c RC4.hs
Okay, I did that and I see a .hi file now. Thanks!
Once that step is done, you should be able to compile prng.hs.
Interestingly, I get a different error now: $ nhc98 prng.hs -o prng Undefined first referenced symbol in file FN_RC4_46rand ./prng.o ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to prng collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Oh well, I'll figure this out later. For now I'll just have everything in one big file. At least that compiles cleanly.
Incidentally, if you aren't already familiar with "make" or some other build system, I strongly recommend looking into one. Even for a project with only two files, having a build system keep track of compilation dependencies makes things a lot less tedious.
Ok. I played with make once upon a time. Thanks for the advice. Cheers, Daniel.
