PXSL Ask-a-Question/MacOSX, ghc 6.4 , Drift Sources

• in gmap-5.0 about duplicate definition of cast, my fix was

perl -i~ -pe 's,bcastb,xcast,g' DataGenerics.hs | grep -i cast

• the next error, a drift generated file

./XmlString.hs:58:23:
    Couldn't match `TypeRep' against `TyCon'
      Expected type: TypeRep
      Inferred type: TyCon
    In the first argument of `mkAppTy', namely `_tc_XmlStringTc'
    In the definition of `typeOf': typeOf x = mkAppTy _tc_XmlStringTc

Any Ideas? I think you should add the drift-files (*.ds) to the source packages.

The most-recent release fixes the problem

First, thanks for your question.

To fix the problem, get the 0.9.4 sources from the http://community.moertel.com/pxsl/sources/ directory.

Let me know if that solves your problem.

Thx for the help, it works now!

Btw. how did you make the beautiful pgh-pm-talk-haskell.pdf?

• With Latex hyperref or anything else?
• Which style file do you use? Any Pointers?

The contents is very good for beginners, i like it very much and hope that the haskell community grow.

I am happy to have been of assistance.

For the presentation I used the excellent LaTeX Beamer class and some custom programs that convert an Emacs outline-mode document into a series of slides. I have tried a number of LaTeX-based slide systems, and I like Beamer the best.

Cheers!
