| Summary | 0004884: optional argument does not work when Some is redefined |
| Description | The following code fails:
module M = struct
type t = Some of int
let f ?(v2=0) v1 = v1 + v2
end
The problem is probably that optional arguments are soon translated in some other code that uses the Some constructor without specifying the module (Pervasives.Some).
I agree that defining a new Some constructor is probably a bad practice but if OCaml relies on Some not being redefined, then redefining Some should produce an error. |
