Other sites of the forge will load for me, but not this particular one.
<hcarty>
Or perhaps they won't. The others may have been loading from a cache.

sgnb: there is an issue from time to time with DNS on OVH
<gildor>
sgnb: the only solution it to stop using our own DNS service
<gildor>
(because OVH secondary DNS is not very reliable)
<gildor>
sgnb: if the error is still here tomorrow morning I will (re, re, re)-open a ticket at OVH about this problem... And they will come 3 hours later saying: everything is working, what is your problem
<oriba>
what does "finalization" mean? Is it the process of the GC, when it kills objects?
<sgnb>
oriba: indeed
<bitbckt>
oriba: That's correct.
<oriba>
ok
<oriba>
so, when doing C-OCaml-stuff, I have to take care that mem is freed correctly... hmhhh
<oriba>
so this should be written in the Tutorial from Florent Monnier
<oriba>
there is a section about it
<oriba>
ok
<oriba>
so i now know what he is talking about ;)
<oriba>
all should go well, if I follow his advice
<oriba>
all in all it looks not that complicated
<oriba>
some years ago I had done some C-OCaml stuff
<oriba>
just little things
<adrien>
oriba: for C values, you have the usual malloc/free combo, for ocaml values, you don't have to do anything
<oriba>
in my view it was much cleaner and easier than C-Perl
<adrien>
not putting it correctly
<oriba>
I mean when I allocate with malloc, and the GC throws it away before I could free....
<oriba>
I think, that's (hopefully) what in the C-wrapping Tut is explained
<adrien>
ocaml will reclaim everything of type 'value', but if there is something not obvious (more than simply freeing the memory), you have to help ocaml and tell it what it si
<oriba>
I'm too tired to read it this night
<adrien>
is
<oriba>
too much work since some weeks
<sgnb>
no
<sgnb>
ocaml will reclaim what has been allocated by caml_alloc_*
<sgnb>
not what has been malloc()-ed
<oriba>
reclaim here means: freeing by GC?
<sgnb>
if something must be free()-ed, this must be done in the finalizer
<sgnb>
yes
<oriba>
ok
<oriba>
that seems to be the "Custom Finalization" section
<oriba>
with finalize_fobj()
<oriba>
so maybe tomorrow I can try that...
<oriba>
...it's good to know, where I can ask... :)
