Hello,
Haskell 101 question! I discovered that aio_error returns "errno" rather
-1. Of course, my aio_error binding is called before my aio_return binding
(aio calling sequence "protocol"). I have worked on Posix OS's for quite a
while but am unhappy with non-consistent errno handling ;^(. In any case, I
modified my aio_error binding implementation to have a "AIOCB -> IO Errno"
signature:
aioError :: AIOCB -> IO Errno
aioError aiocb = do
allocaBytes (#const sizeof(struct aiocb)) $ \ p_aiocb -> do
poke p_aiocb aiocb
errno <- throwErrnoIfMinus1 "aioError" (c_aio_error p_aiocb)
return (errno)
foreign import ccall safe "aio.h aio_error"
c_aio_error :: Ptr AIOCB -> IO Errno
"ghc" thinks that "Errno" should be an instance of "Num":
System/Posix/Aio.hsc:117:15:
No instance for (Num Errno)
Why?

Hello,
I am also testing my aio support. The aio_write binding seems to work ok .. as well as aio_error, Aio_return is a problem child. I think I wrote a really simple binding. I always receive nbytes as 0. I have been staring at the code hoping to catch a stupid mistake. I put putStrLn's in the code. .....Here is the code ...
aioReturn :: AIOCB -> IO (AIOCB, ByteCount) aioReturn aiocb = do allocaBytes (#const sizeof(struct aiocb)) $ \ p_aiocb -> do poke p_aiocb aiocb count <- throwErrnoIfMinus1 "aioReturn" (c_aio_return p_aiocb) aiocb <- peek p_aiocb return (aiocb, fromIntegral count)
foreign import ccall safe "aio.h aio_return" c_aio_return :: Ptr AIOCB -> IO CInt
Maybe someone can spot something that I haven't.
Thanks, Vasili
