[Haskell-cafe] Halp: wacky FFI problems

[Louis Wasserman]

Hey,

I'm trying to do some funky things with the FFI, and I'm clueless enough
with C that I could use some help.

In particular, I'm trying to bind to the glpk library in a multithreaded
style.  It's not normally thread-safe, but somebody suggested how to make it
safe here <http://www.mail-archive.com/help-glpk@gnu.org/msg04021.html>.

I have no idea how to integrate this with FFI-style bindings.  A
single-threaded set of bindings that I've written is here:
http://hackage.haskell.org/package/glpk-hs  I'm trying to figure out how to
integrate FFI bindings with pthreads, and yadda yadda, and I'm pretty
clueless.

Any suggestions?
