RE: [Haskell-cafe] Low Level Audio - Writing bytes to the sound card?

6 Dec 2009

      I am going to give this a try. Thanks.
Where can I get the pexports and dlltool utilities?

Google yields:
http://www.emmestech.com/software/pexports-0.43/download_pexports.html
http://sourceware.org/binutils/

Are those correct?

I don't know whether this will help you but I just downloaded an built
the haskell portaudio package ... (I had a windows msvc build of
portaudio dll already) the process I used ... ghc 6.10.4, portaudio-19

make an import lib for ghc from dll:
pexports libpa19.dll > libpa19.def
dlltool --input-def libpa19.def --output-lib libpa19.a

edit the .cabal file or use command line flags

  extra-Libraries: pa19
  extra-lib-dirs: c:\portaudio19\lib
  include-dirs:   c:\portaudio19\include

 runghc setup configure

make sure you have cpp i.e. the c-preprocessor on your exe path,
otherwise you will get
'cpp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
c2hs.exe: Error during preprocessing custom header file

runghc setup build

builds ok ...??

it's not that c2hs isn't found or something, c2hs doesn't find Base.chs!
Try installing from the unpacked sources (cd portaudio; cabal install) or the old-
fashioned way:
cd portaudio-0.0.1
ghc --make Setup
./Setup configure --help
(choose your options, prefix, profiling, ...)
./Setup configure $OPTIONS
./Setup build
if all's well,
./Setup haddock
./Setup install
(dies for me with
dist/build/Sound/PortAudio/Base.chs.h:1:23: error: portaudio.h: Datei oder 
Verzeichnisnicht gefunden
c2hs: Error during preprocessing custom header file
cabal: Error: some packages failed to install:
portaudio-0.0.1 failed during the building phase. The exception was:
exit: ExitFailure 1
because I don't have portaudio installed)
