I've been trying to get my feet wet with Functional Reactive Programming, and I'd like to play around with a library and some examples, particularly one that's already set up to work with a GUI framework like Gtk2Hs or wx. But it's been nightmarish trying to find something that works.
- Grapefruit examples wouldn't compile because they were trying to import things I couldn't find in Hackage. (Codebreaker.hs, for instance) Examples using git-level stuff?
- reactive-banana-wx wouldn't build because I have array-0.5 on the system level and cabal couldn't resolve dependencies.
- threepenny-gui example Buttons.hs wouldn't compile (16:30: ‘jsStatic’ is not a (visible) constructor field name)
Author of reactive-banana and threepenny-gui here. One of the design goals of Threepenny is to be dead simple to install. Please keep reporting things that don't work. In your case: Are you trying to run the Button.hs file from github? This one is coded against version 0.6.*, which has not been released on Hackage yet. Please use the Button.hs file included in http://hackage.haskell.org/package/threepenny-gui-0.5.0.0 instead, or run the threepenny-examples-buttons executable. As for reactive-banana-wx: There's a reason I started Threepenny. :) Best regards, Heinrich Apfelmus -- http://apfelmus.nfshost.com
