Original bug ID: 5536
Reporter: Hendrik Tews
Assigned to: @zoggy
Status: feedback (set by @zoggy on 2012-03-14T20:59:41Z)
Resolution: open
Priority: normal

Bug description

Inheriting from a library class gives a warning, while normally
types from libraries appearing in the interface do not produce a
warning.

class a =
object
inherit Odoc_html.html
end

Additional information

also present in 4.00.0+dev13 (2012-03-08)

I don't have any smart idea on how to prevent this. The only way I see is to filter one some constant names but it's not very elegant. This may also be a bug in case of a name conflict.
Any suggestion ?

Unfortunately, we don't have much manpower to improve these non-trivial aspects of ocamldoc in the future, so it is likely that the issue will remain unaddressed -- I will close it now to focus on issues that are more likely to be revisited in the future. There is more momentum towards using odoc, whose design may be more amenable to solve this kind of issues.
