HaskellR On Windows

[Vidas]

Hi All,

thank you very much for the very nice solution!

I manage to build inline-r, but if I try building the the full package on Windows I get the error:

Error: While constructing the build plan, the following exceptions were encountered:

In the dependencies for unix-2.7.2.1:
    unbuildable must match <0, but the stack configuration has no specified version needed due to ihaskell-inline-r-0.1.1.0 -> unix-2.7.2.1

Plan construction failed.

Not sure it is even possible to build ihaskell-inline-r on Windows?

Thank you in advance!

Hello, Vidas.

Full package is not buildable on windows, because it's

dependencies (namely ihaskell) does not build on windows and

depends on `unix` package. See

https://github.com/gibiansky/IHaskell/issues/528

So in order to build ihaskell-inline-r we ought to patch IHaskell first.

Hi Alexander,

thank you for the clarification!
Since you worked on this topic - maybe you know a package that facilitates calling Python from Haskell on Windows?
