Hi ocaml folks
I have a C program that makes callbacks to the OCaml runtime via the
callback_exn() mechanism. Unfortunately, the OCaml code is raising some
exception. It seems to be one of the built-in OCaml exceptions, and not
something that I have defined in my OCaml code.
I would like to know what is the easiest/correct way to identify the
exact OCaml exception being raised, so I can debug this program.
You can use the macros Is_exception_result and Extract_exception
(defined in callback.h) to check whether the result of callback_exn is
an exception and to retrieve the exception value in that case. The first
field of this value points to a block with one field pointing to the
string representing the exception's constructor name. The other fields
of the exception value are the exception's arguments.
