The manual has a section on just this issue, although the manual can be a little confusing at times: <a href="http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/manual032.html#toc140">http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/manual032.html#toc140</a><br>
<br>Sylvain Le Gall already mentioned the basics - registering the values with the garbage collector using CAMLparam (and then releasing them with CAMLreturn) prevents any problems.  Also local values should be declared using CAMLlocal and global values should be registered using caml_global_register_root.<br>

Hi, everyone,<br>
<br>
If a compactification is triggered do the values get rewritten or do<br>
they become invalid?<br>
<br>
<br>
