While we're on the topic, does anyone know if there exists a similarly simple solution like the (last) section "Using both Python & Haskell with ctypes" at http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonVsHaskell that works on Linux to easily link Haskell libraries/functions into Python?

What I would do is go through the 'usual' export process of exporting Haskell to C. You could use the ***_stub.h files that are produced, but it's usually a bit easier to make your own .h files. After this use swig to wrap the C callable result into Python. A lot of the build tools seem to support SWIG these days. I know that CMake does and probably SCONS does to. What would be nice would be just a touch more automation to handle this. Maybe we can write some Haskell code to script up the process of linking together the correct object files for export on the Haskell side. Or perhaps it suffices to automate it within CMake or SCONS or provide macros or python scripts to do the same. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Export-Haskell-Libraries-tf3569747.html#a9984796 Sent from the Haskell - Haskell-Cafe mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
