Hi Haskellers,
I'm trying to install wxHaskell on Windows XP. I have already installed Haskell Platform 2012.04.0.0, MinGW and wxWidgets. When I try to install wx, I got the following error when cabal is installing wxcore: : : It looks like it's confused by the spaces in the path and can't find the wxc.h file. I tried to configure cabal to install all user packages into a simpler directory. But cabal always install to the C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\cabal directory no matter how I change the config file there. Anyone knows how to fix this problem or change cabal directory on Windows? Thanks.
The best way to do this, is to download from https://github.com/atzedijkstra/wxHaskell . (This is the most up to date repository online.) Then replace the wxcore\Setup.hs file with the one attached to this e-mail (this has not been tested on non-Windows platforms). Install all wxHaskell packages from this repository, in the following order: wxdirect wxc wxcore wx .
