Subject: [Caml-list] 3.13.0 stricter on interfaces? (building extlib)
Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 10:52:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <C1DBEF7C-B845-4F03-9023-CE77065918EC@in.tum.de> (raw)

Hi everyone,

I just tried to build extlib with the most recent checkout of ocaml (rev 11286):
The build fails on the extHashtbl.ml module:

---
Error: The implementation extHashtbl.ml
       does not match the interface extHashtbl.cmi:
       ...
       In module Hashtbl:
       Values do not match:
         val create : ?seed:int -> int -> ('a, 'b) t
       is not included in
         val create : int -> ('a, 'b) t
---

As far as I understand the problem, extlib's Hashtbl claims to implement the Hashtbl-interface from the standard library.
Previous OCaml versions were ok with extlib's "create" function having an additional optional parameter, but 3.13. seems to think different.
Is this on purpose or a bug?


Regards

-Markus
