Re: [wxhaskell-users] wxHaskell 0.9.4 - wxMac 2.6.1 - GHC 6.4.1 on MacOS 10.4

Hi,

[Note: sorry if you see another message from me in the future
 that is vaguely similar to this one.  I keep forgetting about
 the size limit and moderation]

I'm glad to hear there's more than 2 people trying to use wxhaskell on
OS X.

The following tarball contains a recent version of a wxhaskell
darwinport I made:

http://eric.kow.free.fr/download/wxhaskell-dp-2006-05-23.tgz

Using this, I was able to get wxhaskell working for my OS 10.4 (ghc
6.4.1). =20

Unfortunately, I am too brain-dead right now to remember what I did to
make things work (or to understand all the gcc flags), but I do vaguely
recall that

1) it uses my unicode patch so that you can use the wxWidgets that
   comes with DarwinPorts

2) i do something which sacrifices some of wxhaskell's fancy
   functionality (which I do not use)... what this functionality
   is I do not recall

3) there is something about this port that made me hesitate to
   send this to the DP folks.  Gregory Wright is still trying
   to make an old version of the port work.

4) i seem to have trouble making this work with 6.4.2 although it
   compiles just fine (?)

Of course, it is not absolutely essential that this be used with
DarwinPorts.  I'm sure the patch-makefile contains some useful hints.

In short, works for me, your mileage may vary, etc. =20

Hope this helps,=20
