A Compiler for the functional language Haskell
Maintained by: haskell@FreeBSD.org
Port Added: unknown

Haskell is the standard lazy purely functional programming language.
The current language version is Haskell 98, agreed in December 1998,
with a revised version published in January 2003.

A wide variety of Haskell related resources (tutorials, libraries,
specifications, documentation, compilers, interpreters, references,
contact information, links to research groups) are available from
the Haskell home page at http://haskell.org/.

The Glasgow Haskell Compiler is a robust, fully-featured, optimising
compiler for the functional programming language Haskell 98 generating
good code for a variety of platforms. GHC is a state-of-the-art
programming suite for Haskell and compiles Haskell to either native
code or C. It implements numerous experimental language extensions to
Haskell, including concurrency, a foreign language interface, several
type-system extensions, exceptions, and so on. GHC comes with a
generational garbage collector, a space and time profiler, comprehensive
set of libraries and an interactive system for convenient, quick
development.

The profiling libraries for Glorious Glasgow Haskell Compilation System
should be installed when GHC's profiling subsystem is needed.

This library parses and dumps documents that are formatted according to
RFC 4180, "The common Format and MIME Type for Comma-Separated Values
(CSV) Files". This format is used, among many other things, as a lingua
franca for spreadsheets, and for certain web services.

- Unbreak on 9.x.  Random core dumps experienced during the build are
  probably caused by an rtld(1) bug in the base system that may not
  affect everybody, though.

  For affected systems: watch out for the upcoming rtld(1) fix (by
  Kostik Belousov) to be committed soon.

This library offers an alternative parallel programming API to that
provided by the parallel package. The Par monad allows the simple
description of parallel computations, and can be used to add parallelism
to pure Haskell code. The basic API is straightforward: the monad
supports forking and simple communication in terms of IVars. The library
comes with an efficient work-stealing implementation, but the internals
are also exposed so that you can build your own scheduler if necessary.

Efficient hashing-based container types. The containers have been

The declared cost of each operation is either worst-case or amortized,
but remains valid even if structures are shared.

blaze-textual is a fast Haskell library for rendering common
Haskell datatypes in text form using the blaze-builder library.

Obtained from:  FreeBSD Haskell

A library that performs fast, accurate conversion between double
precision floating point and text.  This library is implemented as
bindings to the C++ double-conversion library written by Florian Loitsch
at Google: http://code.google.com/p/double-conversion/.

The Text versions of these functions are about 30 times faster than the
default show implementation for the Double type. The ByteString versions
are slower than the Text versions; roughly half the speed. (This seems
to be due to the cost of allocating ByteString values via malloc.)

As a final note, be aware that the bytestring-show package is about 50%
slower than simply using show.

Snap is a simple and fast web development framework and server written in
Haskell. For more information or to download the latest version, you can visit
the Snap project website.

The Snap HTTP server is a high performance, epoll-enabled, iteratee-based web
server library written in Haskell. Together with the "snap-core" library upon
which it depends, it provides a clean and efficient Haskell programming
interface to the HTTP protocol.

Higher-level facilities for building web applications (like user/session
management, component interfaces, data modeling, etc.) are planned but not
yet implemented, so this release will mostly be of interest for those who:

* need a fast and minimal HTTP API at roughly the same level of abstraction
  as Java servlets, or

* are interested in contributing to the Snap Framework project.

A priority search queue efficiently supports the opperations of both a
search tree and a priority queue. A 'Binding' is a product of a key and
a priority.  Bindings can be inserted, deleted, modified and queried in
logarithmic time, and the binding with the least priority can be
retrieved in constant time.  A queue can be built from a list of
bindings, sorted by keys, in linear time.

Provides functions to throw and catch exceptions. Unlike the functions from
Control.Exception, which work in IO, these work in any stack of monad
transformers (from the 'transformers' package) with IO as the base monad.

of the MonadCatchIO class.

The Haskell XML Toolbox bases on the ideas of HaXml and HXML, but
introduces a more general approach for processing XML with Haskell. The
Haskell XML Toolbox uses a generic data model for representing XML
documents, including the DTD subset and the document subset, in Haskell.
It contains a validating XML parser, a HTML parser, namespace support,
an XPath expression evaluator, an XSLT library, a RelaxNG schema
validator and funtions for serialization and deserialization of user
defined data. The library make extensive use of the arrow approach for
processing XML.
