Re: [Gtk2hs-devel] Windows installer part of upcoming release?

Hi, that's good news that gtk2hs finally will have a release compatible with 6.12. I've already pointed out that it would be essential to have it work with 6.12.2 as well. But what I want to ask is, if a MS Windows installer will be part of the release? I have tried to install gtk2hs from repo

Hi Pete, I don't think I can produce a Windows installer in reasonable time. I have no root access and no experience. If I roll out a interim Gtk2Hs souceball, can you find the time to update your Windows machine and re-create the installer? Cheers, Axel. ---

That is up to Pete, esp. on how much time he has. I have no access to a Windows machine and, in fact, no experience with Duncan's installer script. So you want an install *now* or in a few weeks time? If I understood your email about the threading issue correctly, you use -threaded for your Thread

I've no idea how hard this is, but is it possible to have an updated gtk2hs Windows installer to GHC 6.10.4? The problem is that currently we're trying to write a list of instructions for people to get ThreadScope, and on Windows we can't tell people to get the Haskell Platform because it ships
