# Haskell - Foreign Function Interface
Haskell's FFI allows easily to cooperate with other languages. Foreign functions can call Haskell code and vice versa.
Simple examples can be found in my git repository [1]. For now, the provided Makefile exposes two interesting targets:
* **c\_from\_hask** - simple program with a C function called from Haskell.
* **hask\_from\_c** - simple programm with a Haskell function called from C.
The next step is to pass more complicated structures via _ForeignPtr_'s.
## Notes
* since version 8.4 GHC guarantees that garbage collection will never occur during an unsafe call.
