Re: porting OCaml on OSKit
OCaml is a Objective variant of ML. I have version 2.04 of OCaml
working on Redhad linux 6.0. To port OCaml on OSKit, I tried to use
ix86-oskit-gcc to compile the files and make OCaml. ix86-oskit-gcc
doesnt exactly behave like the linux gcc and for some files it shows
parse errors. I couldnot figure out the reason.
I was at a meeting earlier this week and learned that Greg Morrisett's
group at Cornell has ported OCaml to the OSKit, in the course of
getting TAL running on the OSKit. At least I think that's what was
involved. So maybe they can just give the Caml part to you.
I have cc'ed Greg.
I had one more difficulty. How do I use the build tools (ar,
sed, ranlib)
They aren't currently provided.
and the basic interfaces (open/close/read/write/seek) in
OSKit. (ie how are they provided in OSKit).
Just use these posix things; they should work. There are lots of
example programs to look at and build on. grep is your friend.
