       C->Haskell - Haskell Interface Generator              -*-text-*-
       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

C->Haskell is a interfacing tool that eases Haskell access to C libraries. The tool gets information about the C data type definitions and function signatures by analysing the C header files of the library. It uses this information to compute the missing details in the template of a Haskell module---called the binding file---that implements a Haskell binding to the C library. Hooks embedded in the binding file signal where, which, and how C objects are accessed from Haskell. The Haskell code in the binding file determines Haskell types signatures and marshaling details. Further information is at

NOTE: HOWEVER, all code included into generated bindings is under a BSD-style license that does not place any restrictions on the license of the inteface produced with C->Haskell (ie, closed proprietary licenses are possible, too). In other words, I do not care what you use C->Haskell for or to whom you are giving C->Haskell or any interfaces generated with C->Haskell, only if you modify or improve C->Haskell itself, you have to contribute your changes back to the community. Nevertheless, I will of course be particularly delighted if you choose to make your work freely available.
