Hey Sam, I've been trying to read the first 100 lines from a file with the
following code (hoping to replace the 100 with some way to count how large a
file is - which is another thing I have been having issues with)
"readFromFile",
(p1 (fun file ->
let value =
let ic = open_in (unbox_string file)
and buf = "" in
really_input ic buf 0 100;
buf
in
box_string buf),
datatype "(String) ~> (String)",
PURE);
which compiles fine, but when I run it in Links I get the following error:
*** Error: Invalid_argument("really_input")
Am I missing something?
Once again, thanks for any help you can provide,
Simon
