00:59 <Taaus> wb jemfinch

15:01 <hff> anyone around?

15:01 <Taaus> Yeah..

15:02 <hff> has anyone built the SDL libs for ocaml?

15:02 <Taaus> Umm... I haven't got the foggiest... Sorry.

15:02 <hff> doh

15:03 <hff> i don't know much about ocaml, so i'm not sure how to fix the problem i'm ahving

15:06 <Taaus> Well. I'm pretty much a O'Caml newbie myself, so... :)

15:21 <hff> perhaps you could tell me what cmi files are?

15:25 <Taaus> Umm... I think .cmi is a compiled interface file, or something...

15:25 <hff> what i'm getting is:

15:25 <hff> The implementation sdlcdrom.ml does not match the interface sdlcdrom.cmi:

15:25 <Taaus> Ah.

15:26 <Taaus> Hmm... Maybe you should recompile the sdlcdrom.cmi file.

15:26 <hff> yeah, i've tried a few times. it generates a new one, but fails with the same error

15:27 <Taaus> That's odd... I mean, if you compile the .ml file, the interface ought to match...

15:27 <hff> here's the rest:

15:27 <hff> Values do not match:

15:27 <hff> external drive_name : int -> string = "sdlcdrom_drive_name"

15:27 <hff> is not included in

15:27 <hff> val drive_name : drive:int -> string

15:27 <hff> make[1]: *** [sdlcdrom.cmo] Error 2

15:28 <hff> make distclean rm's all the cmi files

15:28 <Taaus> Hmm... :/

18:51 <whee> hi

19:17 <whee> is lablgtk pretty much the best way to do crossplatform gui with caml?

23:06 <Yurik> hi

23:06 <Yurik> guys, what is faster - ocaml native-compiled or haskell native-compiled? just wondering...

23:06 <Yurik> I mean produced code, `course

23:07 <whee> I'm going to be an idiot and use that old computer language shootout as a base and say caml

23:07 <whee> heh

23:08 <Yurik> do you mean The Great Computer Language Shootout

23:08 <Yurik> ?

23:08 <Yurik> :-)

23:08 <whee> yeah

23:09 <Yurik> btw, I can't find any network library in ocaml-3.04,

23:09 <Yurik> where I can find it (even cross-platform sockets)

23:09 <whee> I believe sockets are in the unix lib

23:10 <Yurik> will it be portable?

23:11 <whee> I honestly have no clue

23:11 <whee> try reading http://caml.inria.fr/ocaml/htmlman/manual034.html :D

23:12 <whee> I've used the Unix module for sockets and it worked under freebsd, linux, and cygwin with just a recompile

23:13 <Yurik> ok, thanks. Is there any proved library to make ocaml programs run in distributed manner (like Erlang's do)? If you know, of course. I've reviewed some link sites, but haven't found any of such library

23:15 <whee> I think I've seen a few on the caml site (hump)

23:16 <whee> there might even be a ocaml extension that does something like that

23:18 <JGibson> http://caml.inria.fr/hump.html search for 'distributed' there's one, but it might be in french

23:18 <whee> http://www.cs.cornell.edu/Info/Projects/Ensemble/

23:18 <whee> something like that?

23:20 <whee> I have no idea what I'm talking about at this point heh

23:21 <JGibson> http://www.azstarnet.com/~dmcclain/LanguageStudy.html here's a review that includes caml

23:54 <JGibson> Yurik: did you find what you were looking for?

23:55 <Yurik> JGibson not yet :-) Actually, I'm in process of decision of which language I will use for the software. The variants are Erlang, OCaml and Haskell... And I'm wondering what I'll select

23:59 <comatoast> I've copied down Euclid's algo, and I want to test it out a bit...is there any way I can access an argv-workalike?
