Subject: [Caml-list] structural comparison of records
Date: Sat, 6 Mar 2004 16:46:19 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040306214619.GA17735@localhost> (raw)

Is it safe to depend on the fact that structural comparison of records
proceeds in the order of the record fields?  The implementation does
this, but it seems to be left unspecified in the manual.

For example, will
    type version = { major: int; minor: int }
always be ordered as expected?  Or should I define my own comparison
function to be safe?
