<seafood_> Hi guys. I'm having al little trouble reading from a file.
<seafood_> Actually I'm having a little trouble reading from another process. The problem is that I just want to read as much as I can. Unfortunately, the ocaml functions I'm using kind of assume that there will be and end of file. But there won't be.
<pango> ?
<lmbdwr> oi
<seafood_> Hmmm. I think I may have found what I need. set_nonblock

<pauld> is there some library function for recursivly listing files?
<pango> there's library functions to list files, the "recursive" part is up to you
<pauld> ok, just checking. thanks

<Eridius> I looked at part 1 of the OCaml manual, and it's going pretty slowly and not really explaining the stuff I'm curious about (like the function signature). Is there a faster-paced tutorial, or should I just keep reading the manual?
<pango> have a look at http://www.ocaml-tutorial.org/
<Eridius> ok, thanks
<pango> http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/oreilly-book/ is a bit dated, but still ok (and more in depth)

<Eridius> thanks
* Eridius is looking into hacking on Unison, but the darn thing's written in OCaml
<pango> yup, nice tool
<malc_> save from props changes..
<malc_> over 1000 files
<Eridius> too bad Unison is no longer under active development
<malc_> well neither is TeX if that's of any help
<Eridius> haha

<tsuyoshi> what is the problem with having an ocaml library be lgpl?
<tsuyoshi> I read some allusions to this on the mailing list but I can't find an explanation of it
mikeX has joined #ocaml
smimou has joined #ocaml
<ChoJin> I'm not sure why, but you don't have dynamique linking in native-mode, so I can imagine it would be a problem if you want to release your program with a native binary only
_velco has quit [Remote closed the connection]

<tsuyoshi> oh I see
<tsuyoshi> so the problem is that people don't want to give out the objects for relinking
ChoJin has quit ["This computer has gone to sleep"]
<tsuyoshi> I don't think I really care about that
<malc_> tsuyoshi: eh? ocaml stdlib is LGPL + static linking exception
postalchris has joined #ocaml
<tsuyoshi> yes
<tsuyoshi> but I mean if I make a library
<tsuyoshi> and I license it under lgpl
<tsuyoshi> why do I want to add an exception?
_fab has quit []
_fab has joined #ocaml
<malc_> tsuyoshi: you don't have to
<malc_> other than that, there's no way to dynamically _link_ _ocaml_ code
<malc_> and this sort of defeats the purpose of LGPL.. and given that .cm[xoa] format changes with every release there's no other option to comply with the rules
<tsuyoshi> oh the object format changes
<tsuyoshi> I didn't know that
<tsuyoshi> why does it change so often?

<tsuyoshi> so one version of ocamlopt can't link with objects from another version at all?

<malc_> tsuyoshi: in general - yes
<malc_> and it's in no way limited to native code compiler
<pango> they say that in devel versions, compatibility sometimes break every 2~3 weeks
<tsuyoshi> I see.. that is a bigger problem than lack of dynamic linking
triple_ has quit [Read error: 110 (Connection timed out)]
dark_light has quit [Connection reset by peer]
<tsuyoshi> hmm.. it looks like a couple people got dynamic linking working
<malc_> oh yeah?
<tsuyoshi> yeah.. probably only works with the same compiler version though
mikeX has quit [Read error: 60 (Operation timed out)]
<malc_> well.. what do you know.. second link rings a bell
<tsuyoshi> so that means.. every time the compiler is upgraded, all the ocaml libraries have to be upgraded too
<tsuyoshi> I was wondering why they didn't want to upgrade the compiler in debian
<malc_> right
