Hi, For the past week I've still been making the document loader example to work in Haskell. The example is working, but still needs some manual work for it to compile and run.
An issue that arises is the creation import cycles in Haskell code due to dependencies between some UNO IDL entities. For now, there is an Haskell module for each entity, and a module for each entity namespace. The namespace module contains the data definitions, while the entity module contains its specification (e.g., interface methods). Also, the document loader example needed more types than the ones specified in "types.rdb", namely in "offapi.rdb". This information is needed both at compile time and at run time. For the compile time, the "Setup.hs" was hardcoded with "offapi", and at runtime an option is given as argument to make it load the types. I'll try to add to the cabal package configuration file an option to specify more type sources, so that the runtime arguments are no longer needed and the "Setup.hs" remains generic. For this week I will improve code generation to reduce the manual work and modify a little the binding to make it more type safe.
