[Haskell-cafe] FFI and Excel VBA

[Lewis-Sandy, Darrell]

I am new to using the Haskell FFI, and have been trying to implement the
example in section 11.6 of the GHC user's guide.  

 

I have finally gotten to the point where my dll compiles (there is a missing
space in the mainDll.h code at line 4:12) using GHC 6.6.1, and used the
declare statement to expose the "adder" function in Excel VBA.  My VBA Code
is given below:

 

Private Declare Function adder Lib " adder.dll" Alias "adder at 8" (ByVal x As
Integer, ByVal y As Integer) As Integer

 

Private Sub test()

Debug.Print adder(1, 2)

End Sub

 

 

 

My problem is this:

The function works fine (the immediate window displays 3), but when I
terminate Excel, I get an application error ("The instruction at ...
referenced memory at ... . The memory could not be read.").  Does anyone
else have any experience calling Haskell from VBA that might be relevant?
