Hi there,
Recently I started to use the Format module's support for custom tags
(in order to print XML). I noticed a somehow strange behavior (at least
it seems strange to me). What follows is a minimal example:
First enable tag printing via
# Format.set_tags true;;
- : unit = ()
Now consider the printing function
# let f fmt = Format.fprintf fmt "@{<test>t...@}";;
val f : Format.formatter -> unit = <fun>
When used on std_formatter it produces what I expected, namely
# f Format.std_formatter;;
<test>test</test>- : unit = ()
On str_formatter however the result is different.
# f Format.str_formatter;;
- : unit = ()
# Format.flush_str_formatter();;
- : string = "test"
Where have my tags gone? What am I missing here?
thnx for any help
cheers
christian
