[Caml-list] Mixing variant types...

[Jonathan Roewen <jonathan.roewen@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm wondering why the following doesn't work:

let sources = (Event.receive internal_control) :: List.map (fun w ->
Channel.receive w.control) !windows in

where internal_control passes a (window,`New_window) event over the
channel, and w.control passes values of the type (window,event), where
type event = [ `Repaint ].

I thought that since they're both variant types, I should be able to
build a list that uses both variants.

Hmm, I just had a thought: is this because it's a tuple with the
variant inside the tuple?
