Hello readers of haskell-cafe! I asked this question on Stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/q/5969616/417501 Because I want to get a good answer, I cross post it here. It may be interesting: Is it possible to use cmake for Haskell projects? I am planning a project written in Haskell, maybe there are some parts in C as well. For the buildsystem I decided against the common choice for Haskell programs cabal, mainly because I want to learn how building programs in other languages works. I heard about CMake and I think it is a pretty cool product. Although I have no knowledge in how to use it, I want use CMake for that project, just to find out how it works. Googleing did not reveal any facts about how to use cmake with haskell, and all tutorials I read were rather confusing. Is it possible, and if yes, how is it possible, to compile a projectwritten in Haskell using CMake? Robert Clausecker
