(I am posting this to Cafe and Gtk2Hs Users; if you subscribe to both, please reply to Cafe; but I will see your replies either place; thanks much.) I am trying to compile the Gtk2Hs demo program GladeTest.hs (located in the ...\demo\glade dir), under MS Windows XP. The error I get is: H:\proc\tools\Gtk2Hs\demo\glade>ghc --make GladeTest.hs GladeTest.hs:4:7: Could not find module `Graphics.UI.Gtk.Glade': (--Note:-- I am using H: instead of C: for reasons described later.) I did these okay: cabal install cabal-install cabal update cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools cabal install gtk and I can compile and run some other Gtk2Hs demos (that do not use Glade) okay. In general, I am assuming that I need to "cabal install foo" when Haskell module foo cannot be found during compile. (Please correct me if I am wrong.) I get an error during the glade install: H:\proc\dev\cmd>cabal install glade ... Configuring glade-0.11.1... setup.exe: The pkg-config package libglade-2.0 version >=2.0.0 is required but it could not be found. ... (the full output is listed below) I think I have package libglade-2.0 installed, because I installed the GTK+ and Glade bundle from: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/glade3/3.6/glade3-3.6.7-with-G... at: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/glade3/3.6/ at: http://glade.gnome.org/ That install created tree: H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\ which includes these: H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\include\libglade-2.0\ and H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\glade-3.exe H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\bin\libglade-2.0-0.dll H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\lib\libglade-2.0.a H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\lib\pkgconfig\libglade-2.0.pc So, I'm thinking maybe my install of Gtk+ (just running glade3-3.6.7-with-GTK+.exe) was lacking somehow, or cabal somehow doesn't see my Gtk+ dir (during "cabal install glade") ? So, I tried editing my cabal config so it would see my Gtk+ tree. I uncommented and edited these lines in the main, un-indented section: extra-include-dirs: H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\include extra-lib-dirs: H:\proc\tools\Gtk+\lib but it doesn't seem to help. (my full cabal config listing is below) Regarding my use of H: instead of C:, I have a non-standard configuration of the Haskell Platform and cabal. I need to develop (Haskell code that uses Gtk2Hs, Glade, etc.) in a MS Windows network, from any of several PCs (one at a time), each of which uses a common tools tree. So, instead of installing the Haskell Platform, cabal, Gtk+, etc. to C:, I have installed them to a network drive (H:). So, I have: H:\proc\tools\Haskell Platform H:\proc\tools\Gtk+ H:\proc\tools\cabal etc. Any help or pointers would be appreciated.
