Re: [Yhc] Yhc Web Service quietly opened for public testing

That is seriously cool.
Congratulations Dmitry!

Hi,
I finally got the Yhc Web Service (web-based front end to the compiler) running in public testing mode. There hasn't been any documentation written, and Haddock stuff not brought in order, but if anyone wants to just get a taste of it, please open this hpaste entry:
and follow the instructions.
In 10 steps, you'll get Haskell to work in your web browser* ;) No need to install anything.
Feel free to edit the source code, and even deliberately make errors to see how error log looks. At the moment, I do not run automatic cleanup of failed compilations.
This is one of my old tests, not showing any GUI interaction. However, both documents browser and new entry form were written in Haskell which gives some idea about what can be done. Sources of these forms are in the Yhc repo.
Thanks.
----------- * Likely, your results will be better with Firefox than with MSIE. But MSIE should work as well.

Does this take a Haskell program and compile it to JavaScript? That's pretty amazing. Justin

Yes, exactly. The two user interface programs, MainGUI and NewEntry were written in Haskell and compiled into Javascript by the same tools. With minimal changes they are pasteable/compilable by this service as well. See http://haskell.org/pipermail/yhc/2008-March/001194.html - anybody wants to try? I suggested this relatively simple program as a test example just to make sure results would be similar for everybody. More complex issues may arise e. g. with CSS interpreted differently by FF vs MSIE; this needs to work on in the future. Thanks for your interest. -- Dimitry Golubovsky Anywhere on the Web
