[Caml-list] ocaml-3.07beta2 on Cygwin

[Gerrit P. Haase]

Hallo,

Cygwin changed the naming scheme for X binaries and importlibraries,
this means the X11 is not found by configure without this change:

diff -Nurd ocaml-3.07beta2~/configure ocaml-3.07beta2/configure
--- ocaml-3.07beta2~/configure  2003-08-20 17:10:58.000000000 +0200
+++ ocaml-3.07beta2/configure   2003-08-29 15:23:24.000000000 +0200
@@ -1194,6 +1194,7 @@
 do
   if test -f $dir/libX11.a || \
      test -f $dir/libX11.so || \
+     test -f $dir/libX11.dll.a || \
      test -f $dir/libX11.sa; then
     if test $dir = /usr/lib; then
       x11_link="-lX11"

#END

Besides this it builds clean.

Are there testsuites available to test the different generated
executables for regression?

Applied.  Thanks for the fix.

Not really.  The optional build steps "make bootstrap" and "make
opt.opt" are a good test of ocamlc and ocamlopt, respectively.  We
also have some in-house tests for particular features of the run-time
system.  But there is no comprehensive regression test.  Which is why
feedback on beta releases is very much appreciated :-)

Please see also my second mail (sent only to caml-bugs) because I
realized later that the GDBM part was not built, it seems Cygwin uses
its own scheme, there is no gdbm-ndbm.h header here so it is not tested
by configure if dbm_open is in libgdbm_compat.a where it seems to be
now.
