Est-ce que vous pouvez essayer de recuperer aussi la derniere
version de CamlImages (sous CVS), de la configurer, compiler
et installer, avant de compiler Advi? Il y a des modificatios
qui vont en tandem entre Camlimages et Advi, et si le camlimages
que vous avez est vieux, c,a peut expliquer ce qui se passe

[Christophe Raffalli]

Je viens d'essayer camlimages et camlDVI. Il y a un problème: le nom des
librairies de camlimages 2.0
a changé par rapport au noms attendu par activeDVI 0.3.1.

Fix:

modifier ainsi la ligne 558 du fichier ./configure de activeDVI
 	CAMLIMAGESLIBS="ci_core ci_ppm ci_ps ci_graphics"

...

Il ne reste plus qu'a implanter le clic dans le dvi qui vous renvoie dans le
source LaTeX sous emacs/Xemacs et 
le clic dans l'autre sens :-)

C'est déjà fait :-)

        http://cristal.inria.fr/~remy/whizzytex/

WhizzyTeX works with gv, xdvi or advi, but it is only pleasant when using the 
Advi previewer (other previewers redraw in foreground, which make the window
flash). 

Moreover, Advi can transform click positions into source file positions,
which WhizzyTeX can use, as you say, to turn a click in the Advi window into
the expected action in Emacs: visit the corresponding buffer and move to the
source position of the click (whenever possible).

I am waiting for the upcoming release of Advi to release whizzytex as well.

Mmm, je peut en faire un package debian ?

ou meme mieux, puis-je l'integrer dans le package advi ?

Il serait mieux de laisser ces packages indépendant, puisque advi ne
requiert pas emacs.

Mmm, ...

1) il existe un package debian de mldvi, mais qui n'inclut peut-etre pas
toutes les nouveautes de Advi. Il faudrait que je package Advi, ou que je
remplace mldvi par ActiveDvi. Je ne sais pas ce qu'il en est exactement.

2) j'aimerait savroi quelle version des packages camlimages et ocaml tu
utilise, la derniere version de ocaml est 3.04-5 et la derniere version de
camlimages est 2.00-1.

Arg, ...

/usr/include/caml est l'emplacement correct pour les fichier d'include caml,
comme il se doit. C'est une idee bizarre de mettre des fichiers d'include dans
/usr/lib, bien que je comprenne pourquoi ocaml fait cela, pour le package
debian on a la chance de pouvoir placer les fichier au bon endroit.

L'ideal aurrait ete de pouvoir changer les chemins des includes dans le
configure ou le makefile de Advi.

est-ce que tu a installer une librairie tiff ? camlimages ne smeble pas
dependre de tels librairies, mais stefano vient juste d'en faire un package,
et ce serait peut etre un bug de son package.

Ok, ... Je vais donc de ce pas faire un package debian de Advi (derniere
release officiel, pas cvs).

une sortie de dpkg -l \*caml\* aurrait ete plus instructive, en particulier
pour les versions installe.

Ceci dis, la bonne maniere de resoudre ce genre de probleme, est de faire un
rapport de bug contre le package debian incriminer (ocaml ou cmalimages) ou
eventuellement d'envoyer un mail a debian-ocaml-maint@lists.debian.org.

Since I know nothing about the directory layout of O'Caml system in Debian,
I am not sure what is happening...

But I fixed the CFLAGS setting of Advi Makefile so that now ocamlc can use
its default cc include path (usually -I /usr/local/lib/ocaml) correctly.
I hope this may help you...

Well, basically, everything is in /usr/lib/ocaml as usual, only i moved the
includes in the more logical /usr/include/caml directory. Which may be one of
the reason of this causing problems. That said, i built activeDVI 0.3.1
without any kind of major problems.

I guess so, will try it out later on.

> # The next release of Advi is soon...

Cool, ...

BTW, i currently ship both mldvi and activedvi as debian package, mldvi being
1.0 and activedvi being 0.3.1. I think this may be overkill, but since i am
not entirely sure of what you or alexandre have thinked about it, i prefer to
keep it as such (and well, going from 1.0 to 0.3.1 version is not nice for
debian packages, i could manage it, but would prefer not to). 

Also, i have written a small manpage for mldvi (which i send to alexandre i
think) and upgraded it for activedvi. You may want to look at it, change
things as needed, and integrate it into the cvs archive. (attached here).

Also, may you consider adding some small changes to the makefile i need in
order to make debianization of it easier ? It is only the following :

--- activedvi-0.3.1.orig/Makefile
+++ activedvi-0.3.1/Makefile
@@ -88,6 +88,15 @@
 .depend: *.mli *.ml
        $(OCAMLDEP) $(INCLUDES) *.mli *.ml > .depend
 
+# debian matters

 # just for the authors
 WEBSITEDIR=/net/pauillac/infosystems/www/activedvi
 
As you see, i need a install target, which i can modify the directory prefix
with something akin to this $(DESTDIR) variable.

Also we could imagine moving all the debian subdir into cvs, so people could
build packages directly out of cvs, ...

(I still didn't had time to work on the lablgtk frontend to ml/activedvi
wanted to do:((()

.SH NAME
mldvi \- a simple DVI previewer written in Objective Caml.
.UR http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/
(http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/)
.UE
.SH VERSION
ActiveDVI 0.3.1 (based on mldvi 1.0)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mldvi
.RI [ options ] " dvifile" ...

.B mldvi.opt
.RI [ options ] " dvifile" ...
.SH DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the
.B mldvi and native code 
.B mldvi.opt
commands.

This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution
because the original program does not have a manual page.

.SH CURRENTLY SUPPORTED FEATURES:

\- Antialiasing

\- Color (as defined in the LaTeX package `color')

\- Automatic recompilation of METAFONT fonts

\- Automatic reloading of the file after modification

+ Encapsulated Postscript File inclusion (using graphics package)

+ Some effects for presentation (pause, delay, text color change)

Notice that mldvi needs the `kpsewhich' tool in order to find and
recompile PK fonts.  (This program is part of the `kpathsea' library
provided by many TeX distributions.)

.SH OPTIONS
Options are : 

.TP
.B \-g GEOM, \-geometry GEOM
sets the (maximum) geometry GEOM
.TP
.B \-crop
crop the window to the best size (default)
.TP
.B \-no-crop
disable cropping
.TP
.B \-hmargin DIMEN
horizontal margin  (default: 1cm)
.TP
.B \-vmargin DIMEN
vertical margin    (default: 1cm)

.P
Geometry GEOM is specified in pixels, using the standard format
for specifying geometries (i.e: "WIDTHxHEIGHT[+XOFFSET+YOFFSET]").

Dimensions (for options `-hmargin' and `-vmargin') are specified as
numbers optionaly followed by two letters representing units.

When no units are given, dimensions are treated as numbers of pixels.

Currently supported units are the standard TeX units as specified in
the TeXbook (D. Knuth, Addison-Wesley, (C) 1986):

.RS 2
`pt' (point), `pc' (pica), `in' (inch), `bp' (big point),
`cm' (centimeter), `mm' (millimeter), `dd' (didot point),
`cc' (cicero) and `sp' (scaled point).
.RE
      
Notice that dimensions are specified w.r.t the original TeX document,
and do not correspond to what is actually shown on the screen, which
can be displayed at a different resolution than specified in the
original TeX source.

.SH KEYSTROKES

Mldvi recognizes the following keystrokes when typed in its window.
Each may optionally be preceded by a number, whose interpretation will
depend on the particular keystroke.

.RS 2
.TP 7 
.B q
Quits the program

.TP
.B n
Moves to the next page (or to the n-th next page if a number is given)

.TP
.B <space>
Moves to the next "pause" in the current page

.TP
.B p
Moves to the previous page (or back n pages).

.TP
.B g
Moves to the page with the given number.  The first page is numbered 1.

.TP
.B c
Center the page in the window, and resets the default resolution.

.TP
.B <
Scale the resolution by 1/1.414

.TP
.B >
Scale the resolution by 1.414

.TP
.B f
Load all the fonts used in the documents.  By default, fonts are loaded
only when needed.

.TP
.B F
Does the same as `f', and precomputes the glyphs of all characters used
in the document.  This takes more time than loading the fonts, but the
pages are drawn faster.

.TP
.B C
Erase the image cache

.RE 
Moreover, the user can drag the currently displayed page in the window
in order to change its relative position.  (This is useful when the
page is displayed at a resolution such that it cannot fit in the
window.)

.SH EYE CANDY MACROS

Using mldvi.sty included this program, you can embed some ActiveDVI
specials into your TeX documents. With ActiveDvi, these specials
provide some eye candy features for your presentation.

.TP
.B \epause
ActiveDvi stops rendering at the point of the document and wait a user key
stroke.

.TP
.B \ewait{sec}
Delay the rendering at the point of the document for sec seconds.

.TP
.B \etag{tag}{text}
Put a "ActiveDVI tag" named tag to the text. This tag can be used to change
the color of the text later.

.TP
.B \ehide{tag}{text}
Same as \etag{tag}{text}, but does not render the text at this point.  You can
display the text later, using \eplay macro.

.TP
.B \eplay{tag}
Display the texts associated with the tag.

.TP
.B \ehilight{tag}{color}
Display the texts associated with the tag, using the color.

.RE
Please look at test/demo.{tex|dvi} and test/macros.{tex|dvi} for
more information and examples.

Thus. That's the directory where ocaml has installed its library files (It
is bound to CAMLDIR in Makefile.config of advi).  Thus, ocaml should have
copied the files (mlvalues.h, alloc.h, etc.)  in the subdirectory
$CAMLDIR/caml.

These are certainly fatal errors. 
Can you check that the files mlvalues.h, alloc.h fail.h are really in

        /usr/lib/ocaml/caml/

If not, there might be a problem with the ocaml installation.
Otherwise try the simpler command:

        ggc  -I/usr/lib/ocaml/caml -c events.c

on its own.

No, the include files are in /usr/include/caml on a debian system as the FHS
mandates.

That doesn't seem to be a good thing to do.
Objective Caml has only one standard: a unique distribution. If you
start to mess around with the directories, this is not very helpful
for anybody. There is no way a library developper can find the path of
the caml include files, other than expecting them to be in the
standard place, under the library directory. Usually you just call
them by <caml/mlvalues.h>, and your scheme with still work, but if
anybody chooses to do -I`ocaml -where`/caml , which is supposed to be
correct, then it breaks.
And what are you doing with caml-light header files ?

By the way, FHS or not, glib puts parts of its headers in
/usr/local/lib/grealizelib/include, which seems to be pretty similar to what
ocaml does (I noticed that righteous FreeBSD mainteners are moving them
back to /usr/local/include/glib12...)
And these headers will only be used by ocaml programs, this is not
just a standard C library.

Just a comment.

Cheers,

So has Debian - that's why it exists at all.  It is one thing that
distinguishes it from e.g. RedHat, which generally just takes the
upstream defaults for configurations, and the result is a mess as one
would expect.

Yes, it is: to people with experience on Debian, but none on Ocaml.
Which is exactly the sort of people that would install a binary
package, I think.

The way I did it when I built Ocaml from sources was with a symlink,
so that it existed in both places.

BTW, /usr/include/ocaml (to match the package name) would be a better
name.

Hello Ian,

The point is that the "right" way to compile an extension to ocaml is
to use ocamlc, which will automatically add /usr/lib/ocaml to the
include path. If the caml subdirectory is not there, this will not be
very useful. Using ocamlc will also set properly some compilation
flags for thread compliance, and make sure you can build a dll.

Since these headers will preferably _not_ be used by gcc directly,
they don't need to be in the standard hierarchy.

Another problem is that both ocaml's (unfortunately limited)
documentation, and ocaml developpers base themselves on a standard
installation. If you start messing around, you end-up with the kind of
quiproquo we are seeing here.

A symlink avoids all these problems. And if you do it yourself, you
know that you're doing something nonstandard, and will no bother the
developpers with this.

That seems a good idea too.

By the way, all my comments do not intend to criticize the work of
packagers. I know this is a hard task. I just hope we could end up
with a better way to combine efforts.

Interesting point.  I have hacked on a few extensions, but I _always_
just called gcc directly.  Somehow the fact that ocamlc is a full
driver just like gcc doesn't easily enter one's consciousness, I'm
afraid.  Also, when one uses things like autoconf and hairy makefile
rules, direct use of the C compiler is more conveient (think of all
the -ccopt stuff you'd have to pass...)

I was suggesting that the link be a part of the package.  Users are
not supposed to touch /usr/include on Debian.

I can add a symlink then, if it is agreable.

Well, but people will look there.

I will have to patch the documentation then, or better yet add a note about
them.

I will add a symlink in the next version of the package.

but will break all those #include <caml/xxx.h> :)))

5BTW, i agree, there are lot of caml left around in the ocaml distribution and
friends which could be changed to ocaml.

Okay, i appreciate, i maybe don't all the time see things as fully as i
should, and may ignore problems that you or others may encounter. 

I will add a symlink though, and everybody will be happy.

Well, yes, that is the intention.

I think there is a symlink from the old place to there.

You are speaking about  /usr/lib/glib/include/glibconfig.h ?

I don't think this is a header that is supposed to be used for developpment,
is it, while the caml header belong under /usr/include, since they are used in
standard developpment, and you do a #include <caml/mlvalues.h> for them.

Any developper wanting to use C code will need those, thus they go into the
right place, and no need for an additional -I`ocaml -where`/caml, and it will
not break, since the files are where they are supposed to be, in /usr/include.

Just because you are used to doing it like that, doesn't make it the right way
of doing things.

But still, if you have very convincing arguments, i may consider them, i have
not seen such upto now.
