I have been working on a Gentoo ebuild for Hat and ran across a few issues. First, it is the cabal package (not hat-package.conf) that needs to be piped to ghc-pgk register - to register the package (which is easy enough to work around). Futhermore, the file is somewhat incomplete. For example, if the import-dirs field is not added, then GHC is unable to find Hat's classes.
Thanks for these reports. We will look into fixing those.
ghc -package hat -o Insert Hat/Insert.o Hat/Insert.o: In function `r2iZ_info': : undefined reference to `HatziHat_mkModule_closure' Hat/Insert.o: In function `HatziInsert_asort_info': : undefined reference to `HatziHat_mkVariable_closure' Hat/Insert.o: In function `HatziInsert_ainsert_info': ....
I am presuming that HatziInsert_ainsert_info, etc. are functions in libraries or headers that should be linked to the program, but, if so, where are they?
"HatziInsert_ainsert_info" is the (traced) function Insert.ainsert in the program you are trying to compile. The error is that this function uses (by reference) the functions Hat.Hat.mkModule and Hat.Hat.mkVariable. Both of those are defined in the hat library Hat.Hat, and should be available to the compiler by the "-package hat" flag. I don't know why this is failing. What version of ghc? Were there any linking errors when the hat package was built? Regards, Malcolm
