From Alexis:
Hi Neil, I got your email from the YHC website, and I have several questions which I hope you can answer for me. I am an MSc student working on the development of a Haskell system for use with the Lego Mindstorms NXT (My intent is to port it using the GCC-ARM toolchain and get it running with the NXT firmware). For the most part I need a Haskell compiler that will run within the 256KB memory space. YHc seems like it could be perfect for such an application, but I am curious about the following: - Is YHc VM based? Or can it compile Haskell directly to C code, or both, or some intermediate code? - What is the typical memory footprint of the compiler/programs? Especially the interpreter/VM...? (I'm trying to compare this to GHc, for instance) Thanks in advance for your kind response. Cheers, -- </Alexis>
