1 What is it?

Gtk2Hs is a Haskell binding to Gtk+ 2.x. Using it, one can write Gtk+ based applications with GHC.

2 Homepage

http://projects.haskell.org/gtk2hs/

3 Tutorials and Demos

http://www.haskell.org/haskellwiki/Gtk2Hs/Tutorials

Some demonstration programs can be found at:

http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs/cairo/demo/
http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs/gtk/demo/

4 Status

See Gtk2Hs/Installation#Supported_Versions for details on which systems should be able to build Gtk2Hs and which are known to be able to build Gtk2Hs.

5 Installation Notes

See Gtk2Hs/Installation.

-The widget function coverage is almost complete, only a few minor bits and pieces are missing.
-It currently builds with ghc 5.04.3 through to 6.8.2

+== Status ==
-=== Mac OS X ===
-==== Article as of Mid 2008 ====
-Installing Gtk2Hs on Mac requires some finesse, at least until Haskell Libary Platform is built or ghc-6.8.3 is
-available in macports. (These are planned for late 2008.)
-* Install [http://macports.org MacPorts]
+See [[Gtk2Hs/Installation#Supported_Versions]] for details on which systems should be able to build Gtk2Hs and which are known to be able to build Gtk2Hs.
-* Install dependencies:
- sudo port instll glade3 libglade2 gstreamer gst-plugins-base gtksourceview cairo librsvg gtkglext firefox
-* Update PKG_CONFIG_PATH (for libraries)
- export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig
-* Update ghc to use macports libs: Edit your main <tt>ghc</tt> driver program and change the last line to:
- exec $GHCBIN $TOPDIROPT ${1+"$@"} -L/opt/local/lib -I/opt/local/include
-* Download Gtk2Hs following instructions at [http://www.haskell.org/gtk2hs/downloads/ Gtk2Hs Download page]
-* Check configuration:
- ./configure --enable-docs --enable-profiling
-...
+== Installation Notes ==
- **************************************************
+See [[Gtk2Hs/Installation]].
- * Configuration completed successfully.
- *
- * The following packages will be built:
- *
- * glib          : yes
- * gtk           : yes
- * glade         : yes
- * cairo         : yes
- * svgcairo      : yes
- * gtkglext      : yes
- * gconf         : yes
- * sourceview    : yes
- * mozembed      : yes
- * soegtk        : yes
- * gnomevfs      : yes
- * gstreamer     : yes
- * documentation : yes
- *
- * Now do "(g)make" followed by "(g)make install"
- **************************************************
-* Build and Install:
- make
- sudo make install
-==== Recent experiences ====
-I successfully installed the latest version on Mac OS 10.5 by:
-* Installing Macports.
-* <tt>sudo port install ghc</tt>
-* <tt>sudo port install gtk2hs</tt> - which does not complete successfully. It does however, install the appropriate dependencies. Note that there are so many, you may need to install a couple of times due to time outs etc.. The build of Gtk2HS will fail, but that is ok - continue as below.
-* Remove the build directory under <tt>/opt/.../build/gtk2hs</tt>
-* Download Gtk2Hs via darcs as per [http://haskell.org/gtk2hs/development/#darcs the gtk2hs download instructions]
-* do a <tt>sudo port install automake</tt>
-* do a <tt>sudo port install alex</tt>
-* do a <tt>sudo port install happy</tt> (Note this also fails and must be built from source. See the [[Happy]] page for details.)
-* Follow the build instructions on the [http://haskell.org/gtk2hs/development/#darcs the gtk2hs download page]. I would suggest using <tt>./configure --prefix=/opt/local</tt> to get it in the same place as ports - personal preference though.
-Good luck - as usual, your mileage may vary.
