Re: cvs commit: hugs98/lib/hugs HugsLibs.hs hugs98/src/unix convert_hslibs hugs98/tests testScript.in

[Copied to hugs-bugs in case anyone disagrees with the final conclusion. For the baffled, hslibs is the library suite that ships/shipped with GHC. Most of the hslib libraries will be included in the next Hugs release. The list of libraries can be inferred from the script hugs98/src/unix/convert_hslibs script of which the relevant part is included at the end.] Alastair Reid <reid(a)cs.utah.edu> wrote: > Outstanding question: > > Is anything in hslibs not under a BSD-style license - 'cos if there > is, we can't include it in a Hugs distro which effectively means it > won't get used.

When I went to check this today, I found that Regex isn't currently part of the Hugs distribution because it needs FFI support and I haven't bashed on that yet. Or, to put it another way, I know of no code in the proposed Hugs distro whose license is incompatible with the Hugs license.

ST Bug
by Carl McTague 09 Sep '01

09 Sep '01

Hi, when I try to use Hugs 98 to run code that appeals to the ST library, I get the following error: ERROR /home/mctague/share/hugs/lib/exts/ST.hs:48 - Syntax error in type expression (unexpected `.') Monad> Could I be doing something silly? Carl
