Hello, I'm writing the bindings to a C library which uses, in some functions, global variables.
To make it clearer, those functions need a global variable to be defined. A C program using my_function, one of the library functions, would look like: char progname[] = "a_program_name"; int main( int argc, char *argv[] ) { param p; my_function ( &p ) etc. I've been searching the ML, the wiki, the net, etc. without finding some examples on how such things are dealt with in Haskell - is it possible, BTW? If I import those functions without defining the global variable I get a linker error: /usr/lib/mylib.a(cfile.o): In function `my_function': cfile.c:(.text+0x510): undefined reference to `progname' I hope the issue is clear. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Andrea _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
