OK. This makes more sense. Well, except for the nitpicking detail that
true and false are not valid variant type identifiers, they should be True
and False.
There is a special exception: true, false, [], (), and :: are
constructor names, see 6.3 Naming objects. One can ideed write
# type x = true of int | () of string | :: of float
only [] do not work as (not ;-)) expected:
# type x = [] of int;;
Syntax error
(I think I filed a bug report about [], but the ocaml web pages
are just not reachable, so I can't give a reference.)
Bye,
Hendrik
