wxWidgets wrapper for Haskell

Builds & compiles

• against: wxWidgets (http://www.wxwidgets.org/) 2.9.3 up to and including 3.0.2
• with: Haskell platform (http://www.haskell.org/platform/) 2013.2.0.0 and 2014.2.0.0
• on: MacOSX 10.8.4, 64 bits Haskell platform; Windows XP; Windows 8.1 (32 and 64 bit)

Patches until 2015-02-19 have been merged.

All packages have cabal version 0.92.0.0

As of 2014-08-11:

• Prerequisites:

  • install wxWidgets (2.9.3 ... 3.0.2) directly from a source release or use a platform specific installer.
    • if installed from source release configure with ./configure --disable-debug_flag # to avoid debugging popups

• Development build using cabal-dev inside the wxHaskell directory:

  bin/mk-devel # edit the search path in the file so the generated wxdirect is used

  Then use via the resulting package configuration cabal-dev/packages-7.6.3.conf (or any other compiler version)

  Clean:

  bin/mk-devel-clean

• Install globally via cabal

  bin/mk-cabal

  Clean:

  bin/mk-cabal-clean

Note: cabal and cabal-dev builds share the same build directory. Should not be a problem though...

MacOSX:

• 20130725: homebrew (http://brew.sh/) does not yet install wxWidgets 2.9.5 (by means of 'brew install wxmac').
