A while ago I built a Haskell DLL that had to be invoked from Excel.
For some reason (I do not remember exactly why) it did not work directly,
so I wrote a small wrapper DLL in C++ that invoked Haskell functions.
The wrapper DLL was invoked by Excel via COM.

As regards your example, the only thing that springs to my mind is:
check that the calling convention is set correctly (that is, to stdcall
instead of ccall).

Cheers,

2007/6/19, Lewis-Sandy, Darrell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I have finally gotten to the point where my dll compiles (there is a missing
space in the mainDll.h code at line 4:12) using GHC 6.6.1, and used the
declare statement to expose the "adder" function in Excel VBA.  My VBA Code
is given below:



Private Declare Function adder Lib " adder.dll" Alias "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 
(ByVal x As
Integer, ByVal y As Integer) As Integer



Private Sub test()

Debug.Print adder(1, 2)

End Sub


My problem is this:

The function works fine (the immediate window displays 3), but when I
terminate Excel, I get an application error ("The instruction at …
referenced memory at … . The memory could not be read.").  Does anyone else
have any experience calling Haskell from VBA that might be relevant?
