||
| − | # For Debian Linux systems (as long as there's no .deb package): |
||
| − | #* Fetch the rpm package from http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/download.html |
||
| − | #* make sure you have wxwidgets installed (libraries and developer files) |
||
| − | #* if you haven't done this already, install the debian package "alien": apt-get install alien |
||
| − | #* use alien to install the rpm package: alien -i wxhaskell....rpm |
||
| − | #* use ghc-pkg to add the packages wxcore and wx to ghc's package configuration file: <br /><code>cd /usr/lib/ghc-6.2.1/wxhaskell-0.7<br />ghc-pkg -D wxhlibdir=/usr/lib/ghc-6.2.1/wxhaskell-0.7 -ai wxcore.pkg<br />ghc-pkg -D wxhlibdir=/usr/lib/ghc-6.2.1/wxhaskell-0.7 -ai wx.pkg<br /></code> |
||
| − | # Another way for Debian systems:<br /> use the repository "deb http://haskell-unsafe.alioth.debian.org/archive/i386 unstable ." |
||
| − | # A way that surely works: |
||
| − | #* Fetch the two deb packages on http://haskell-unsafe.alioth.debian.org/archive/i386/unstable/w/wxhaskell/ |
||
| − | #* apt-get install libwxgtk2.5-dev |
||
| − | #* dpkg -i [name], where name is the name of the two packages, you should first install the normal package and then the dev-package |
||
| − | #** <code>wxhlibdir=/usr/lib ghc-pkg -ai /usr/lib/wxcore.pkg</code> |
||
| − | #** <code>wxhlibdir=/usr/lib ghc-pkg -ai /usr/lib/wx.pkg</code> |

||
| − | |||
| − | Getting wxhaskell 0.9.4 to work with WxWidgets 2.6 on Panther (10.3). |
||
| − | |||
| − | * install wxWidgets for mac, wxmac http://www.wxwidgets.com |
||
| − | ** use the --disable-shared option for configure (this isn't needed in all cases?)<br><code>./configure --disable-shared</code> |
||
| − | * Make sure you have readline installed. The simplest way is to use fink or darwinports. http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net/building-macosx.html |
||
| − | * grab and install [[WxHaskell]] |
||
| − | * (unique to macosx!)<br><code>sudo ln -s /usr/local/wxhaskell/bin/macosx-app /usr/local/bin/</code> |
||
| − | * See below if you have any trouble |
||
| − | |||
| − | Unknown: |
||
| − | |||
| − | * Does the darwinports version of WxWidgets work with wxhaskell? Would be nice if somebody made a portfile for it. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Errors == |
||
| − | |||
| − | * Problems compiling wxhaskell (something like the below)<br /><code>/tmp/ghc29861.s:4379: Unknown pseudo-op:<br />.subsections_via_symbol</code><br />Make sure you have at least Xcode 1.5 (gcc 3.3 build 1671). Xcode 1.1 (gcc build 1495) is not enough |
||
| − | * If you get linker errors like it not being able to find _TextziParserCombinatorsziParsecziChar_alphaNum_closure, try editing config/config.mk and setting HC=ghc -lHSparsec. This is likely not a mac-specific problem but related to the use of GHC 6.2 over 6.0.1. (not sure if this is still valid) |
||
| − | * When compiling your Haskell program:<br /><code>ld: /usr/lib/crt1.o illegal reference to symbol: __objcInit defined in indirectly referenced dynamic library /usr/lib/libobjc.A.dylib</code> |
||
| − | * Adding -framework AppKit to the compiler switches for your Haskell program seems to help |
||
| − | * Certain buttons and widgets are not active |
||
| − | |||
| − | The last point is possibly a WxWidgets or a wxhaskell bug - basically, widgets in "boxed" environments do not react to user. Take out the box, and you're ok. |
||
| − | |||
| − | == Windows == |
||
| − | |||
| − | Installing [[wxHaskell]] is easy once you realize that the batch file (wxhaskell-register.bat) only |
||
| − | works from folders with no spaces anywhere in the address, e.g. double clicking |
||
| − | C:\Cygwin\wxhaskell-0.9.4\bin\wxhaskell-register.bat works but if you put the files under C:\Documents and Settings\wxhaskell-0.9.4\... or C:\Program Files\wxhaskell-0.9.4\... it might not work. Just move the installer folder wxhaskell-0.9.4 to somewhere with no spaces in the address and double-click wxhaskell-register.bat. I hope this helps someone. |
