Subject: coercions issues
Date: Mon, 12 Mar 2007 21:11:52 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <9d3ec8300703121311h32b09b1by2955d658238d8a02@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
I still can't wrap my head around the whole polymorphic variant of
Ocaml (although I am making steady progresses). Anyways here is my
latest sore point:
This expression cannot be coerced to type
O.o Ast.T.expr O.m = O.o Ast.T.expr Mon.m;
it has type O.o Ast_js.T.expr Mon.m but is here used with type
O.o Ast.T.expr O.m = O.o Ast.T.expr Mon.m
Type
O.o Ast_js.T.expr =
[ `Binop of To.binop * To.expr * To.expr
| `Cst of To.constant
| `Ecall of To.ident * To.arg list
| `Fun of To.ident list * To.bloc
| `Lval of To.lvalue
| `Unop of To.unop * To.expr ]
is not compatible with type
O.o Ast.T.expr =
[ `Binop of To.binop * To.expr * To.expr
| `Cst of To.constant
| `Ecall of To.ident * To.arg list
| `Epos of Ast.location * To.expr
| `Fun of To.ident list * To.bloc
| `Lval of To.lvalue
| `Unop of To.unop * To.expr ]
The first variant type does not allow tag(s) `Epos
I am a little confused as to why this coercion is impossible... It
looks like a simple upward cast to me.
Cheers,
Till
