RE: [Haskell-cafe] State of OOP in Haskell

OOHaskell is ingenious, but it's a terrible way to use Haskell. It's very unidiomatic Haskell, and it makes you do things in the same old OO way.

It's probably obvious but let me say that ... OOHaskell is more of a proof of concept and a sandbox for OO language design. It is not a serious proposal for actual OO application development. Alexy wrote:

And OOHaskell didn't compile for me on GHC 6.6... tells you about currency of use.

I know a few people trying to use it. :-) Oleg and I were distracted but will update OOHaskell for 6.6 soon. Ralf
