Hi,<div><br></div><div>I&#39;ve been reading about the FFI for getting Haskell to communicate with C code (C++ really).</div><div><br></div><div>My intention is to handle most of the app - the GUI events in C++ and sending all of the processing logic in Haskell - including a database etc.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Is the FFI the right tool for a situation where, while used extensively, Haskell is more or less there to take in data, like lists and spit out data like vectors etc back to C.</div><div><br></div><div>
I am looking to get a few test running where I can pass data in an out  of Haskell like vectors of floats.</div><div><br></div><div>Also, I noticed on the wiki example:</div><div><br></div><div><pre style="margin-top:15px;margin-bottom:15px;padding:6px 10px;border:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);font-size:13px;font-family:Consolas,&#39;Liberation Mono&#39;,Courier,monospace;background-color:rgb(248,248,248);line-height:19px;overflow:auto;border-top-left-radius:3px;border-top-right-radius:3px;border-bottom-right-radius:3px;border-bottom-left-radius:3px;color:rgb(51,51,51)">
<code style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:none;font-size:12px;font-family:Consolas,&#39;Liberation Mono&#39;,Courier,monospace;background-color:transparent;border-top-left-radius:3px;border-top-right-radius:3px;border-bottom-right-radius:3px;border-bottom-left-radius:3px">Haskell start
c_main</code></pre></div><div><div>I was a little confused by this.  Does Haskell load up first because its a library?  I couldn&#39;t figure out where it was being called in the C code or why Haskell loads first.  Not a biggie just a bit of an impediment in understanding how it all works.</div>
