I'm trying to call a Haskell function from C, on OS X. There's an
excellent post [1] by Tomáš Janoušek that explains how to do this
on Linux. However, on OS X, it's different. First of all, it looks
like the -no-hs-main flag is ignored, because I get the following
error:
> ghc -O2 --make -no-hs-main -optl '-shared' -optc '-

The flag -no-hs-main is a link-time flag that allows you to link
without a main function, but you are getting a compile time error.
It's as if you try to export main, but don't define it.
Have you had a look at http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/users_guide/ffi-ghc.html#foreign-export-ghc
?
Interesting! I didn't see that section before, thanks a lot.
