[wxhaskell-users] problem compiling wxHaskell on debian

[David R. <dr...@jd...>]

I get the following error when trying to compile wxHaskell 0.1 with ghc6 on
a debian testing system:

ghc -c wxh/src/Graphics/UI/WXH/IntMap.hs -o out/wxh/imports/Graphics/UI/WXH/IntMap.o -ohi out/wxh/imports/Graphics/UI/WXH/IntMap.hi -odir out/wxh/imports/Graphics/UI/WXH/  -fvia-C -package-name wxh -iout/wxh/imports -Iwxc/include
wxh/src/Graphics/UI/WXH/IntMap.hs:168: parse error on input `\'
make: *** [out/wxh/imports/Graphics/UI/WXH/IntMap.o] Error 1

The relevant line seems to be:

[wxhaskell-users] Bug on mouse events

[<72...@in...>]

First of all, please pardon my clumsy english. I am Jose David Fernandez, a 
computer studies student at the university of Malaga, Spain. I am developing a 
yahu-liked GUI on top of WXH, like your WX, as a project for finish my studies. 
I know this is not the moment for comment anything, since certainly everybody 
are on holydays, but I want to report a bug before I forget to do it.

Your mouse event handlers receive a MouseEvent data as argument. This data can 
have the constructors MouseLeftDrag, MouseRightDrag, MouseMiddleDrag, and 
others. You get the button that is dragging by consulting the 
mouseEventGetButton method. But (and here is the bug) this method returns -1 on 
a wxEVT_MOTION event (see wxwindows docs), and the mouseEventDragging method 
only returns TRUE on wxEVT_MOTION, so your data event converter always yields 
MouseLeftDrag (the default choice), never the other two MouseXXXDrag.

I have been looking for a solution. I think you should use the methods 
XXXIsDown, what is I am going to do in my library. I hope I have been useful.

I would want to comment another thing. Since I am working with the WXH package, 
I need the sources for consulting. You have packed all them except wxcClasses 
and wxcDefs. I am working now with older ones, and I think I can get newer ones 
from the CVS, but it would be useful that you put them in the source release in 
your download page.

Thank you for this wonderful port of wxwindows to haskell and happy return from 
holyday.

[wxhaskell-users] Announce: wxhaskell: MacOSX installer

[Arthur B. <art...@ho...>]

I have created an "out-of-the-box" MacOS X installer for wxHaskell. Simply 
double-click on the package. The installer can be downloaded from:
http://home.deds.nl/~dediav/WxHaskell.dmg
This link is only valid for a couple of weeks. After Daan returns from 
holidays he'll probably put it on the wxHaskell pages.

Note the package only works with ghc 6.0 or higher!

The installer does the following:
1) copy wxWindows and wxHaskell libraries to /usr/local/wxhaskell
2) register the wx and wxh packages with ghc-pkg

To uninstall, type in a Terminal:
1) rm /usr/local/wxhaskell
2) ghc-pkg -r wxh
3) ghc-pkg -r wx

The package also contains the wxHaskell documentation and samples. Copy them 
to your disk.
To test the installation:
Open a terminal in the samples/wx directory, and write:
1) ghc --make -package wx Camels.hs -o camels
2) /usr/local/wxhaskell/bin/macosx-app --program=camels
3) ./camels

The macosx-app script is located at /usr/local/wxhaskell/bin; you may want 
to add this directory to your PATH.

Have fun :-))

Arthur

[Patryk Z. <pa...@ja...>]

Oh, sourceforge is currently having a problem with their CVS box:

    From: "Jeffrey 'hemos' Bates" <he...@sl...>

    The CVS server has *massive* load on it.  We're actually getting a CVS
    proxy, courtesy of San Mehat, but do not have the hardware right now to
    put into place.  That'll go in in the next few weeks.

    But, yeah, most of the time, the CVS server is at astronomical loads,
    and continuous disk access.  So, check back in a bit, and Uriah/someone
    else will have it working again.

Just thought that people would like the reassurance that it's a known
problem and there's a solution around the corner ;-) In the meantime,
I guess just try again or, as Daan said, look for a mirror.

	Pat.

Thanks for the info. However, it downloads fine for most
people here at the university. Maybe you should try a different
mirror or click at the shown mirror URL directly.

All the best,
  Daan.

ps. If it still doesn't work, send me a notice today and I'll put up
some local copies at my home page. (and maybe you could just
reply to me personally (and/or wxhaskell-users) to reduce traffic 
at the main haskell list.)

[Abraham E. <ae...@an...>]

Given your impending vacation, this might not be the best time to mention
it, but...

I can't seem to download any files for wxHaskell from sourceforge; this is
probably a misconfiguration on their part, but I thought it best to let
you know as well.

[wxhaskell-users] Announce: wxhaskell: macOSX binaries and bugfix.

[Daan L. <daa...@xs...>]

Two announcements regarding wxHaskell:
<http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net>

1) I have created a binary release for MacOS X. Installation details can
   be found on the download page.

2) I have fixed a small bug in the configuration script for Linux. The
   source release has been updated. (and I promise I won't do that again
   as I go tomorrow on a holiday for two weeks :-)

All the best,
  Daan.

[wxhaskell-users] Announce: wxHaskell, a portable GUI library.

[Daan L. <daa...@xs...>]

Announcement: wxHaskell 0.1
---------------------------

<http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net>

wxHaskell is a new portable GUI library for Haskell. The goal of the 
project is to provide an industrial strength portable GUI library, but 
without the burden of developing (and maintaining) one ourselves. 

wxHaskell is therefore build on top of wxWindows -- a comprehensive 
C++ library that is portable across all major GUI platforms; including 
GTK, Windows, X11, and MacOS X. Furthermore, it is a mature library 
(in development since 1992) that supports a wide range of widgets with 
native look-and-feel, and it has a very active community (ranked among 
the top 25 most active projects on sourceforge).

Since most of the interface is automatically generated from the 
wxEiffel binding, the current release of wxHaskell already supports 
about 75% of the wxWindows functionality -- about 2500 methods in 500 
classes with 1200 constant definitions.

wxHaskell has been build with GHC 6.0 on Windows, MacOS X and Unix 
systems with GTK. A binary distribution is available for Windows (and
we are working on a binary release for MacOS X).

And even if you don't intend to write GUI's yourself, it will be fun 
to check out the screenshots at <http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net>.

All the best,
  Daan Leijen.
