Hi, In order to try and crush any more bug reports of the form "libary doesn't work with WinHugs", I have just loaded every single .hs file distributed with WinHugs, and seen which fail. Here is a list of the error message: ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\AlbumDTD.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Xml2Haskell" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\App.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Xml2Haskell" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\DTypes.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2XmlNew" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\Example.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\SimpleTest.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\SimpleTestBool.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\SimpleTestD.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\SMIL\DTD_SMIL20.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Xml2Haskell" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\demos\HaXml\Types.hs" - Can't find imported module "Text.XML.HaXml.Haskell2Xml" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\base\System\Process\Internals.hs":747 - Undefined variable "addMVarFinalizer" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\base\Text\Regex\Posix.hs" - Error while importing DLL "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\base\Text\Regex\Posix.dll" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\HaXml\Text\XML\HaXml\Parse.hs" - Can't find imported module "IOExts" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\network\Network\Socket.hs" - Error while importing DLL "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\network\Network\Socket.dll" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Cpphs.Options" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs\CppIfdef.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Cpphs.Tokenise" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs\MacroPass.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Cpphs.Position" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs\ReadFirst.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Cpphs.SymTab" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs\RunCpphs.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Unlit" ERROR "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\programs\cpphs\Language\Preprocessor\Cpphs\Tokenise.hs" - Can't find imported module "Language.Preprocessor.Cpphs.Position" I have also uploaded my makefile log at: http://www-users.cs.york.ac.uk/~ndm/temp/winhugs-make.txt The HaXML errors mainly stem from Xml2Haskell, which doesnt' appear anywhere in the makefile logs. I guess the cpphs errors come from the libraries path setting which is currently: .;..;..\..;{Hugs}\packages\* (I added ..\..) Adding: ..\..\.. to the path makes the cpphs pass Perhaps Hugs should be default search in this manner, if you are 3 dots deep, then move up 3 dots before considering this the current search folder? Yhc has this behaviour, GHC does not, but its very useful! Thanks Neil On 5/31/06, Neil Mitchell wrote:

Hi,

I just got the bug report at the bottom of this email message

Basically, Text.Regex.Posix.dll is not build by the makefile, here is the appropriate bit of the makefile log, which doesn't have that file being built.

The skipping base package is kind of worrying, and it never seems to call ffihugs with the Posix.dll

Thanks

--- user submitted bug ---- when I run this simple script:

module Nils where import Text.Regex

main = do print "hello"

I get the following error in winhugs:

ERROR file:{Hugs}\packages\base\Text\Regex\Posix.hs - Error while importing DLL "C:\Program Files\WinHugs\packages\base\Text\Regex\Posix.dll"

This used to work fine in the january release. Do you know if anything is missing?
