The "findlib" library provides a scheme to manage reusable software
|
|
components (packages), and includes tools that support this
|
|
scheme. Packages are collections of OCaml modules for which
|
|
metainformation can be stored. The packages are kept in the filesystem
|
|
hierarchy, but with strict directory structure. The library contains
|
|
functions to look the directory up that stores a package, to query
|
|
metainformation about a package, and to retrieve dependency
|
|
information about multiple packages. There is also a tool that allows
|
|
the user to enter queries on the command-line. In order to simplify
|
|
compilation and linkage, there are new frontends of the various OCaml
|
|
compilers that can directly deal with packages.
