I'm pretty sure that the error message is generated by gtk2hsC2hs, not
by the shell. That is, if I cut-n-paste the gtk2hsC2hs commandline from
cabal build -v, I see exactly the same error message, but if I give
different arguments on the commandline, gtk2hsC2hs responds with
different errors, e.g.
"Supply the header file followed by the binding file."
If the tool was not on the PATH, the error would instead be something
like
gtk2hsC2hs: command not found
The actual commandline that fails is
C:\workspace\ext\bin\gtk2hsC2hs.exe --include=dist\build
--include=C:\workspace\ext\ghc-6.12.1\base-4.2.0.0
--include=C:\workspace\ext\ghc-6.12.1\containers-0.3.0.0
--include=C:\workspace\ext\ghc-6.12.1\haskell98-1.0.1.1
--cppopts=-ISystem/Glib --cppopts=-IC:/msys/1.0/local/include/glib-2.0
--cppopts=-IC:/msys/1.0/local/lib/glib-2.0/include
--cppopts=-DUSE_GCLOSURE_SIGNALS_IMPL
--cppopts=-DHAVE_NEW_CONTROL_EXCEPTION
--output-dir=dist\build\System\Glib --output=System\Glib\GValue.hs
--precomp=dist\build\precompchs.bin glib-object.h
.\System\Glib\GValue.chs
Checking the filenames and directories that are mentioned, I see that
for instance
C:\workspace\ext\ghc-6.12.1\base-4.2.0.0
does not exist. The correct location would be
C:\workspace\ext\ghc-6.12.1\lib\base-4.2.0.0
Is this an error in the .cabal file, or in the Setup.hs file, or maybe
even in the Cabal library perhaps?
