I understand we can't use 'foreign import ccall' to wrap inline C functions. Do you think it could be possible to have an option in cabal to generate such functions in an object file when #included in a C file, in a compiler independent, portable way?
It might be better to include this feature into hsc2hs and/or c2hs (which may in turn require some help from Cabal).
Do you imagine a nice way to include that in hsc2hs or c2hs? (Also: inline functions are exactly like normal functions, except at compilation time. For those who just want to wrap a few functions, isn't it too much to require them to learn a tool just to use them?) Thanks, Maurício
