| Summary | 0004833: The documentation fails to mention that you must #load "dynlink.cma";; |
| Description | On http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/manual003.html#toc11 [^]
it says you should #load "camlp4o.cma";;
but this fails with the message
Error: Reference to undefined global `Dynlink'
This is because you have to do #load "dynlink.cma";; first
The documentation should be updated to reflect this, to help the new users who just pick up the tutorial to try out ocaml |
| Additional Information | Here is a user who (like me) stumbled into this trap:
