Greetings, Now that I have at least gotten something started on the Library Infrastructure Project, I'm going to bend some of my energy toward the build/install issues for Haskell modules.
The plan at this point, which is summarized on the project web site[1] is to attempt to leverage HMake's usefulness as a non-compiler-specific build system. Since I wrote the proposal, I've been made aware of the AAP project[2]. Does anyone have any experience with this? Does anyone have a sense for how it might fit in with LIP? I know that Peter Simons seems to think it might. I haven't read through all of the documentation, but I suspect it might help us out with the CPAN-style distribution stuff, and perhaps the building stuff. One big objection I have with using it would be that Haskell modules would depend on Python (!), but I thought I'd let everyone know about it anyway. Seems like an interesting project, and we could quite possibly learn something from it. peace, isaac [1] http://www.haskell.org/libraryInfrastructure/ [2] http://www.a-a-p.org/ _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
