Hello, is there a version of hopengl working with ghc 5.04? The one from the releases section of your website have some problems with Int/word conversion functions but also a bigger problem with CCallable instance of ForeignObj in file GLU_Quadric.gc . It seems that CCallable is obsolete. Best regards, Nicolas Oury

[...] I guess you mean the latest and greatest GHC 5.04.2, because earlier versions work quite well with HOpenGL 1.03. Although 5.04.2 is supposed to be a patchlevel release without noticeable API changes, it isn't really: GHC's FFI has been synchronized with the FFI addendum, and there are some subtle changes, e.g. ForeignObjs can't be passed to external functions anymore. I'm quite aware of this and have a version which is "almost" working, including the new GLUT binding with rather extensive Haddock-generated documentation, which is already part of the fptools repository: http://cvs.haskell.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/fptools/libraries/GLUT/ I really hope that I can make a new release before Christmas, meanwhile you can either use GHC 5.04.1 or disable GLU quadrics, NURBS, and the tesselator by hand. Cheers, S.

That's not true - 5.04.2 still supports ForeignObj as an argument to a foreign function. The functionality has been removed in the HEAD, though. I'm not aware of any API changes in 5.04.2 relative to 5.04.1. Cheers, Simon

I don't need these three, but I wonder : should I use the releases on your website or the CVS?(Continue reading)

Hmmm, Simon said this should still be possible with 5.04.2, so I'm a little bit confused. I've just tried HOpenGL 1.03 with GHC 5.04.1 on Solaris and everything worked fine. I don't have a 5.04.2 at hand currently (Simon: What about the Solaris binary?), so I can't figure things out immediately. > I don't need these three, but I wonder : should I use the releases > on your website or the CVS? Definitely the releases, CVS currently only contains a stub OpenGL binding and the new GLUT binding. Cheers, S.

In fact, to be precise this is a CVS ghc from the day of parution of 5.04.2. (It is compiled on OS X.) (it is self-numbered 5.05...) I may have take a bad branch.

Aha, it looks like you got the sources from the HEAD rather than the 5.04 branch (which the recent 5.04.2 release was taken from). To get the 5.04.2 sources, you do this: cvs checkout -r ghc-5-04-2 ... to get the latest from the 5.04 branch, do this: cvs checkout -r ghc-5-04-branch ...(Continue reading)

[...] Just a small update: I've just tested HOpenGL 1.03 with GHC 5.04.2 on Solaris, and it works, too. In a nutshell: HOpenGL 1.03 works with the official releases, but not (yet) with the CVS HEAD. Stay tuned... Sorry for the confusion, S.
