问题:

Is there any way to produce stand alone haskell executable to run on different linux machines assuming the architecture is similar?

Sorry I should have been clearer. The other machines might not have ghc installed on them - a bit like pyinstaller for python is what I was looking for?

回答1:

You can use the flags -static -optl-pthread -optl-static to avoid dynamically linked dependencies when compiling a Haskell project. This should help you run the compiled executable on two linux machines that do not have the exact same library versions.

回答2:

Yes it is possible. Just like with gcc-produced binaries, you can copy them between systems assuming the dynamic libraries and platforms match.

In practice, that's a slightly higher bar than GCC binaries because GHC will dynamically link more libraries by default (ex: libgmp, unless you build GHC using integer-simple).
