[Caml-list] working %.pp.ml target with ocamfind/ocamlbuild

There's a very useful %.pp.ml target in OCamlbuild that runs the source through camlp4 and outputs the result. This doesn't work when ocamlfind is used, as it includes the -pp flags within the ocamlfind invocation. I took a look at adding support for this into ocamlbuild (when -use-ocamlfind i

Re: [Caml-list] Storing ocaml values outside ocaml's heap

I think Ancient is exactly what you're looking for. Just disable swap (which you should do anyway on a big modern server), and it will let you keep in-memory, out-of-heap OCaml values that don't get scanned by the GC. Anil On 8 Dec 2011, at 08:19, William Le Ferrand wrote: > hi Stephane > >

en not used on inside those, that would break a lot of other applications. Anyhow, directly checking the number is bad for portability reasons as the ERESTARTNOHAND is a Linux-ism. I'm taking a shot at porting Core/Async to OpenBSD at the moment, so will patch out that

Re: [Caml-list] Lwt and exceptions

Yes, it's essential to do this for many common functions such as Hashtbl.find. The nice thing about Lwt is that you control yielding, so as long as you catch the exception locally and "convert" it into the Lwt monad, everything works great. The occasional exception leak is really hard to track

[Caml-list] output-obj rule in ocamlbuild

Is there a built-in rule in ocamlbuild to generate the -output-obj output instead of a direct link? I note there are these built-in tags in the ocamlbuild source: ocaml_specific.ml:flag ["ocaml"; "link"; "native"; "output_obj"] (A"-output-obj");; ocaml_specific.ml:flag ["ocaml"; "link"; "byte";
