Hi all, Is it possible to compile and run Haskell programs on QNX? [1] [1] http://www.qnx.com/ - Matt Munz mmm92@pantheon.yale.edu

From a brief glance at the QNX website, it appears to support POSIX, GNU make tools, and gcc-compatible C compilers. Thus it should be possible to get either Hugs or nhc98 up and running very quickly, maybe even straight out of the box, on all architectures.
It is also likely that ghc could be persuaded to bootstrap (with a little work) on at least PowerPC and ix86 platforms, since the native codegen for those architectures is well maintained - MIPS, SH-4, StrongARM, and Xscale would be much more of a challenge for ghc though! Regards, Malcolm
Malcom,

So it sounds like nobody has done this yet (or at least nobody on this list)? I'm very unfamiliar with QNX ATM, but perhaps when I'm acclimated, I might try to get Hugs running on it. Thanks. - Matt Quoting Malcolm Wallace <Malcolm.Wallace@cs.york.ac.uk>:

I have successfully installed Hugs on QNX machine. As far as I can remember, you only need to make a few changes in the Makefile, (change gcc to qcc and change to proper qcc flags).

It would be very helpful if you could mail the required changes. This way we could tweak the autoconf magic so Hugs can build on QNX out-of-the-box. Cheers, S.
