Bug description

Full_Name: Samuel Mimram
Version: 3.07
OS: Linux
Submission from: babasse.residence.ens-lyon.fr (140.77.128.253)

Hello,

I didn't manage to understand why the following program:

exception Toto
Callback.register_exception "toto" Toto

raises the following error when compiled with ocamlc:

File "toto.ml", line 2, characters 0-8:
Syntax error

whereas the folling one compiles perfectly well:

exception Toto;;
Callback.register_exception "toto" Toto

Thank you,

Samuel.

Your program is not syntactically correct. If you want to avoid the use
of double-semicolons, you need to write:

exception Toto
let _ = Callback.register_exception "toto" Toto

Alternately, you can use ";;" instead of "let _ =".
