Admittedly I haven't tried this route (not including *any* external headers at all when compiling .hc files). It might be possible, but you lose the safety net of compiler-checked calls.
yeah, perhaps a hybrid approach of some sort, when building the package, use the system headers, but then include generated prototypes inside the package-file and don't propagate #includes once the package is built. or just an intitial conformance check against the system headers somehow (?), but then only use your own generated ones when actually compiling haskell code. It would be nice to never need to include external headers in .hc files. John -- John Meacham - ⑆repetae.net⑆john⑈
