ports: The Haskell Ports Library

[ control, library ] [ Propose Tags ] [ Report a vulnerability ]

The Haskell Ports Library (HPL) supports concurrent and distributed Haskell programming in the IO monad _without_ relying on mutable variables. Instead, it supplies monotone single-assignment variable and ports abstractions.

		            Haskell Ports Library	             -*-text-*-
			    =====================

The Haskell Ports Library (HPL) supports concurrent and distributed computing
in the IO monad _without_ relying on mutable variables.  Instead, it supplies
monotone single-assignment variables and ports abstractions.  More details at

	     http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~chak/haskell/ports/

Haskell is a state-of-the-art general purpose, purely functional programming
language.  It combines modern language design and a solid formal foundation
with the features required for real-world programming - details are available
at 

  http://haskell.org

<michael.weber@post.rwth-aachen.de> for useful suggestions and to Gabriele
Keller <keller@it.uts.edu.au> for debugging help.  Thanks also to David Sankel
for his `shell-haskell' library where I got some inspiration for the revised
fork/exec handling in `Processes.proc'.
