Subject: [Caml-list] Bitstring and toplevel
Date: Fri, 01 Jul 2011 17:59:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E0DEED4.8070409@fiit.stuba.sk> (raw)

Hello,

Besides the standard library, I haven't use any other Ocaml libraries.
Now I am testing bitstring
http://people.redhat.com/~rjones/bitstring/html/Bitstring.html#2_Compiling
(which is awesome).

I can compile programs that take advantage of this library.

I would like to create a new toplevel system with bitstring extensions included.
I do not know how to do it despite the fact that there is an answer (year 2010):
http://groups.google.com/group/bitstring/browse_frm/thread/859ffe46ebe9d60b

When I try this:

	ocamlc unix.cma dynlink.cma camlp4lib.cma -I +camlp4 toplevellib.cma camlp4of.cma -I +bitstring bitstring.cma bitstring_persistent.cma pa_bitstring.cmo topstart.cmo -o mytop Camlp4Bin.cmo -linkall

the command succeeds, but in the new toplevel system:

	kosik@debian:/tmp$ ./mytop 
        	Objective Caml version 3.11.2

		Camlp4 Parsing version 3.11.2

	# Bitstring.set;;
	Error: Unbound value Bitstring.set
	# let bits = BITSTRING { 1 : 4; 10 : 12 } ;;
	Error: Unbound constructor Bitstring.Construct_failure

Bitstring-related things are undefined. Its emberassing, but I can't figure out what is wrong. Can somebody please help?

Thank you very much in advance.
