Hi all, I would like to contribute and maintain ocaml <http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/distrib.html>.
http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/ocaml/ocaml-3.08.1-1-src.tar.bz2 http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/ocaml/ocaml-3.08.1-1.tar.bz2 http://cs.nyu.edu/~pechtcha/cygwin/ocaml/setup.hint (also inline below) sdesc: "The Objective Caml compiler and runtime" ldesc: "Objective Caml is a fast modern type-inferring functional programming language descended from the ML (Meta Language) family. The O'Caml compiler was developed at INRIA's projet Cristal." requires: cygwin libncurses7 category: Interpreters Devel Notes: - O'Caml builds OOTB, but needed a couple of tweaks to be used with the generic-build-script. Mainly these included patching the configure scripts to use $(DESTDIR), and adding lnconf.sh to allow building outside of the source directory. - This is a monolithic package that includes two compilers: the bytecode compiler and the native compiler. Each compiler also exists in two versions -- bytecode and native (i.e., each compiler was built with the bytecode compiler and the native compiler, in turn). It also includes all the libraries and packages in /usr/lib/ocaml, including "labltk". If necessary, it could be split later. - There was no testsuite in the distribution. The best test I could think of was bootstrapping the system, first via the bytecode compiler, and then via the native compiler. Everything worked. AFAIK, the "labltk" package wasn't tested at all, so use at your own risk. Comments and suggestions welcome.
