Announcing buddha version 1.0 release candidate 1 ------------------------------------------------- www.cs.mu.oz.au/~bjpop/buddha Buddha is a declarative debugger for Haskell 98. It is based on program transformation and relies on GHC version 5.04 or greater (but not version 6 yet). It also needs GHC's libraries compiled for profiling. This is the first candidate release of buddha version 1.0 New features include: - a more user friendly interface than previous versions, - the ability to show higher-order arguments by name or by value (similar to Hood), - deriving Ix is now supported (all standard deriving statements should work now). This is a release candidate. There will probably be a number of candidates before the final version 1.0 is done. Other candidates will not be announced to this list. This candidate has been tested only on Linux (Debian and Mandrake). Previous versions have worked on OS X and Solaris x86, but I don't have access to those machines at the moment. GHC version 6.0 is still not supported by buddha. If there is a great demand for this then I will sort it out faster. Cheers, Bernie.
