This may be a little off-topic, but if someone could help me, I'd be grateful. I am trying to get to a working gtk2hs environment in MacOSX Snow Leopard
I have a Macbook Pro 2.1 with Snow Leopard. While I had Leopard, I had the Haskell Platform installed, and it worked fine. I also had the MacPorts edition of gtk, and compiled gtk2hs by hand. After I got Snow Leopard, I installed the Haskell Platform. I have made the necessary changes to make it compile (flags to ghc), and it compiles normal programs. I installed the standalone version of the GTK+ platform, and then tried to compile gtk2hs from /gtk2hs . ./configure works, but make results in this: [snip] /var/folders/G8/G8LY9MSBEGuyatB+JjSWq++++TI/-Tmp-/ghc4162_0/ghc4162_0.split__2870.s:35:0: invalid character '_' in mnemonic /var/folders/G8/G8LY9MSBEGuyatB+JjSWq++++TI/-Tmp-/ghc4162_0/ghc4162_0.split__2870.s:953:0: FATAL:Symbol L_gtk_misc_get_type$stub already defined. make[1]: *** [gtk/Graphics/UI/Gtk/Types.o] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 I also have gtk installed via macports recently, but I am not sure whether this makes a difference. I don't think there is any point currently in trying to go MacPorts all the way, and install ghc+gtk2hs via MacPorts. Does anyone have a recipe for getting ghc + gtk2hs + gtk working on MacOSX Snow Leopard? Best regards, Arne D Halvorsen
I was able to get gtk2hs working with ghc-6.10.3 (after patching the /usr/bin scripts with -m32) by following the steps from http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Gtk2Hs#Using_the_GTK.2B_OS_X_Framework with one change: call configure for gtk2hs as ./configure --disable-split-objs --disable-gio Hope that helps, -Judah
