Hi, There is probably a simple and yet very good reason scilab isn't written in ocaml. Its predecessor was started in the 80s and scilab itself was started in 90s[1], I guess that rules out ocaml and caml which was only 5 years-old at that time. ;-)
Now that doesn't explain why it is moving to java instead of ocaml but I think other messages in this thread already do. :) [1] http://www.scilab.org/platform/index_platform.php?page=history --- Adrien Nader _______________________________________________ Caml-list mailing list.
