[hmisty hmisty]

Hi, this is my first exp about using mailling list. Try a post, uh:)

Here I describe my successfully steps to install wxHaskell on Mac OS X Panther.
Donot hesitate to contact me: hmisty at gmail.com if you've any
problems/suggestions about this short description.

System Description
Machine: Apple Inc. iBook G3 800 MHz http://www.apple.com
OS: Mac OS X Panther 10.3.8 http://www.apple.com/macosx/
Haskell: ghc 6.4 binary http://www.haskell.org/ghc/
wxWidgets: wxMac-2.5.4 source http://www.wxwidgets.org
wxHaskell: wxhaskell-src-0.9 source http://wxhaskell.sourceforge.net

Pre-step. ghc 6.4 Installation
Download GHC-6.4.pkg.zip and install it.


Step 1. wxWidgets Installation

> Download wxMac-2.5.4.tar.gz
$ tar xvfz wxMac-2.5.4.tar.gz
$ cd wxMac-2.5.4
$ ./configure --enable-opengl --disable-shared --with-odbc
--with-opengl --enable-sound
$ make
$ sudo make install


Step 2. wxHaskell Installation
(Don't try to install binary package
wxhaskell-bin-mac2.5.4-ghc6.2-0.9-0.dmg. error.)
> Download wxhaskell-src-0.9.zip, and extract to wxhaskell-0.9
$ sudo rm -rf /usr/local/wxhaskell (clean old installations if any)
$ cd wxhaskell-0.9
$ ./configure
$ make
wxc/src/db.cpp:1149: error: 'class wxDbColInf' has no member named 'columnSize'
> Modify wxc/src/db.cpp, uncomment line 5: #define wxUSE_ODBC 0
$ make
ghc -c wxdirect/src/MultiSet.hs -o out/wxdirect/MultiSet.o -ohi
out/wxdirect/MultiSet.hi -odir out/wxdirect/  -package parsec
-iout/wxdirect
Could not find module `Map':
  use -v to see a list of the files searched for
  (imported from wxdirect/src/MultiSet.hs)
$ make
ghc -c wxdirect/src/HaskellNames.hs -o out/wxdirect/HaskellNames.o
-ohi out/wxdirect/HaskellNames.hi -odir out/wxdirect/  -package parsec
-iout/wxdirect
Could not find module `Set':
  use -v to see a list of the files searched for
  (imported from wxdirect/src/HaskellNames.hs)
> Continously restart make manually until no such error occurs
> Modify config/wx.pkg and wxcore.pkg (Be careful of name WXCore! It shouldn't be WXCORE in wxcore.pkg) to the following:

$ open helloworld.app
> You must succeed! Enjoy!
