ANN: ocamljs 0.2 + orpc 0.2 + froc 0.1

[Jake Donham]

Hi,

I am happy to announce the release of three related projects:

  ocamljs 0.2: Javascript backend for ocamlc + libraries for web programming
  orpc 0.2: generates RPC bindings from OCaml signatures (ONC RPC with
Ocamlnet or HTTP with ocamljs)
  froc 0.1: library for functional reactive programming, works with ocamljs

You can find the releases at:

  http://code.google.com/p/ocamljs/
  http://code.google.com/p/orpc2/
  http://code.google.com/p/froc/

Changes to ocamljs since version 0.1 include:

  new 'dom' library for browser programming
  new 'lwt-js' library for Lwt lightweight threads (useful with orpc)
  new 'jslib' library for parsing / pretty-printing Javascript with Camlp4
  fuller language support (including calling Javascript methods with
OCaml object syntax)
  support for Javascript inlined in OCaml code
  findlib support

Changes to orpc since version 0.1 include:

  support for RPC over HTTP from an ocamljs client to an ocaml server
  the 'lwt-equeue' library supports all of Lwt on top of Equeue, plus
extra concurrency stuff

Froc is a library for functional reactive programming in the style of
Flapjax and FrTime. It includes the 'froc-dom' library for browser
programming with ocamljs, but can also be used with regular OCaml.

I hope you find this work useful, and I am eager to hear your feedback.

Jake
