<p>I have a question about finding the Gtk2Hs demos (the demos written in Haskell).</p>
<p>To summarize what I have done so far:</p>
<p>I'm a new Cabal user; need to use Cabal in a Windows XP environment, where it and the Haskell Platform are located on a network drive (H:) instead of C:. (Need to be able to do development on any of several PCs, using a single tools dir.)</p>
<p>I want to write Haskell code that uses Gtk2Hs (and Glade).</p>
<p>I have edited Cabal's config and placed it on H:, and so I have set up:</p>
<p>H:\proc\tools\Haskell Platform <br>H:\proc\tools\gtk <br>H:\proc\tools\cabal <br>etc. <br><br></p>
<p>My edited Cabal config is listed at the end below.</p>
<p>I modified my PATH, etc. as follows:</p>
<p>SET P_TOOLS=H:\proc\tools <br>SET HASK_PLAT=%P_TOOLS%\Haskell Platform\2010.1.0.0 <br>PATH %HASK_PLAT%\bin;%P_TOOLS%\cabal\bin;%P_TOOLS%\gtk\bin;%HASK_PLAT%\lib\extralibs\bin;%HASK_PLAT%\mingw\bin <br><br>REM This is so Cabal will get its config from the Haskell Platform, <br>
REM rather than C:\Documents and Settings\pschmitz\Application Data\cabal <br>SET CABAL_CONFIG=%P_TOOLS%\cabal\config <br></p>
<p>I had to add the mingw\bin dir to PATH to get cpp (needed during "cabal install gtk"), and the extralibs dir to get alex (for "cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools"). <br><br><br><br></p>
<p>I download the GTK+ "All-in-one bundle" 2.20.0 (current maintained branch), and ran gtk-demo; it works.</p>
<p>The following commands then completed okay, with various warnings, but no fatal errors:</p></font><font size="3">
<p>cabal install cabal-install</p>
<p>cabal update</p>
<p>cabal install gtk2hs-buildtools</p>
<p>cabal install gtk</p></font><font size="2">
<p> </p>
<p>(There seems to be no "cabal install gtk2hs".)</p>
<p> </p>
<div>*** At this point I am trying to find the Gtk2Hs demos, so I can compile and run them. I cannot find them anywhere in my "H:\proc\tools\" tree. If anyone can help me see what I am missing, I would appreciate it. </div>
<div> </div>
<p><a href="http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs/INSTALL">http://code.haskell.org/gtk2hs/INSTALL</a> says: <br>"To get started, you can compile and run one of the programs that reside in the demo/ directory in the respective packages. For example: <br>
~/gtk2hs/gtk/demo/hello:$ make". <br>But I don't see a "gtk2hs/" dir anywhere. <br></p>
<p>I tried looking for the sources directly (google "gtk2hs demos", etc.) but didn't have any luck.</p>
<p>Thanks very much,</p>

<p>My Cabal config follows. The email may remove indentation, but I was careful to maintain the original indentation when editing. It seems to work fine.</p>
