Hi Lars!
we do something like the following:
- write a DLL which is a 'client' and which has a function
(eval_expression) callable from VBA (written in C and caml).
- write a server, which is an ocaml toplevel but which marshals it's IO.
Then the client runs the server and talks to it through stdin/stdout.
The client/server part is optional I suppose but it is nice not to share
the same address space as Excel.
All ocaml return data types get mapped into a VB variant type.
