Subject: [Caml-list] ocamlbuild pattern language OR
Date: Thu, 6 Oct 2016 17:42:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <838cb092-c371-2c79-75f6-7193e6ed6396@tu-berlin.de> (raw)

Dear all,

I am in the process of writing a set of ocamlbuild rules.
In order to simplify some rules, I'd wanted to merge them (as the
invoked tool dispatches over the file extension anyway). However, I fail
to create an OR-pattern in the rule-declaration:

      rule "description"
        ~prods:["%.out"]
        ~deps:["%.{foo,bar}"] (* tried _tags syntax, does not work *)
        ~doc:"Generate *.out from *.foo or *.bar"
        make_out_command ;

Does anyone know how to solve this?

thanks,

Christoph
