Where are the relevant object files? There's stdlib.a in the OCaml library directory. This is not the only problem with your approach. The OCaml linker generates a number of functions that are global to the whole OCaml program (in particular currying helpers). These are first known at link time and thus generated that late. AFAIK you cannot generate these functions outside the linker step.  The only official way how to turn OCaml code into a linkable object is described here: http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html#s %3Aembedded-code Gerd > > thanks,> > Christoph> > -- ------------------------------------------------------------ Gerd Stolpmann, Darmstadt, Germany gerd@gerd-stolpmann.de My OCaml site: http://www.camlcity.org Contact details: http://www.camlcity.org/contact.html Company homepage: http://www.gerd-stolpmann.de ------------------------------------------------------------
