Question

I would like to use the Haskell GHC / Haskell Platform on Beagleboards that are based on ARM OMAP. Is there any way to do that within short term but without me having to try to cross compile first e.g. LLVM and then GHC etc. for a couple of weeks?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I nearly forgot I made a post about using the Debian Armel (unregistered) build on a beagleboard like device.

Luckily we'll be able to have a registered build soon enough (see this link from jmg's answer). I suspect you could get the Debian unregistered GHC build, install LLVM 3.0, and build GHC HEAD (which includes the linked ARM support - note it isn't functioning perfectly quite yet), thus obtaining a registered build. I don't see why you think this would require any cross compilation.

OTHER TIPS

I have no hands on experience with GHC on ARM. But are you aware of the following page? http://ghcarm.wordpress.com/
