Readme for hCsound-0.2.3
hCsound - Haskell interface to the Csound API.
Enable control of Csound from the Haskell language.
Requirements: a haskell compiler (currently tested with GHC 6.6+), a working Csound installation, and a version of libsndfile compatible with csound.
Building:
In the simplest case, this program can be built in the standard cabal manner, as below:
> runhaskell Setup.lhs configure
> runhaskell Setup.lhs build
> runhaskell Setup.lhs install
The default is to build against 64-bit csound. The flag useDouble controls whether the library is built against 32-bit or 64-bit csound. Disable this flag (with -f-useDouble) to link to 32-bit csound.
Installing on Windows: Installing on Windows is tricky, and I have frequently had problems with the linker included in GHC and the csound DLL. Please contact the hCsound maintainer for further help.
Installing on Mac: the default cpp on Leopard seems buggy. If c2hs has lexer errors during build, build with these options:
--cpp=gcc --cppopts=-E --cppopts=-xc-header
