Hi there, I wonder how I can extend both a module F and its sub-module S (which is then referred to as F.S) I know I can "include" a module and extend with my...
The problem is that "include F" isn't really a way of extending modules. What "include F" does is to import all the symbols in F into the current namespace,...
... Thanks! I got it to work following the theme of your suggestion. I downloaded MASM32, which included the advapi32.lib. Next, I did something evil; I...
Hi, all There is code as follows: type myType = .... let myVar : myType option = None ... It seems that both 'option' and 'None' are not keyword. Where in...

... I think they used to be defined in pervasives.mli (the Pervasives module), but it appears that in recent versions of OCaml they're actually built in to the...
I've been thinking a lot about OCaml's restriction that record field names need to be unique. It seems like an uncomfortable tradeoff, and digging into the...
We've got a similar problem. We solve it the hard way, prefixing record names, and using "fully qualified" module names when referring to the records from...
... That depends, but you can also make them read-only by using the "private" keyword in the module interface (in this case you have to write one): module X : ...
... Aha. So, for you, it's not an either-or situation; you're using *both* module scoping and prefixing. I feel strongly motivated to do either one or the...
... Interesting... I've never really used that feature before. But by "private", I'm really talking about making the type abstract, and just providing...
... I'd just like to be a bit clearer on why we use both. It's because we commonly have multiple types defined with similar fields within the same module....

Hello, on the Caml-list there the term "boxed values" is often used. What's a boxed value and what's an unboxed value? TIA, Oliver -- "If you desire sanity in...
