[solved] Re: [Haskell-cafe] Calling Haskell from C, Linking with gcc?

[John Velman]

For anyone following this:  The XCode ld script is complex, and has mac
specific defaults early in the search path specification, and I probably
don't want to change these.  A library in a default path is the wrong
libgmp.[dylib | a].  

My solution:
do a

ln -s libgmp.a lib-h-gmp.a 

in the /Library/Frameworks/GHC.Framework/..../usr/lib folder.

Then add lib-h-gmp.a to my Xcode project.

Compiled, linked, and ran and got the right output.

Thanks to everyone who helped.
