btw, my cabal file contain line:
Build-Depends: base, Win32, template-haskell
if i correctly understand, this will not work on unix systems, while without Win32 package program can't be compiled on my windows box.
sorry if i overfill mail list, but that is another solution, that don't contain hard-wired name of "Streams.cabal" file and don't require two separate cabal files - one for windows and one for unix. instead, it just use the default cabal file and adds "Win32" package to the list of used packages if we are running windows box: #!/usr/bin/runhaskell import qualified System.Info import Data.List import Distribution.Simple import Distribution.Simple.Utils import Distribution.PackageDescription main = do pkg_descr_file <- defaultPackageDesc pkg_descr <- readPackageDescription pkg_descr_file let isWindows = "mingw" `isPrefixOf` System.Info.os config = if isWindows then pkg_descr { buildDepends = Dependency "Win32" AnyVersion : buildDepends pkg_descr } else pkg_descr defaultMainNoRead config i hope that it will be useful for other developers p.s. for language lawyers: the code is in public domain -- Best regards, Bulat mailto:Bulat.Ziganshin@gmail.com
