Let me ask you 3 simple questions.
Can one use Haskell to make dynamically linked libraries (DLL on Windows, so on Linux) ?

The short answer is yes.

The long answer is that this is not a feature of haskell, but rather a feature of certain programs, which happen to be mostly but not entirely written in haskell, in particular, the haskell compiler. GHC can produce dynamically linked libraries.


If yes, what is in them ?

Object code, mostly. Sometimes a little data.
