My problem is the following: I have a module A which defines a concrete type ta and a variable xa of type ta. I have a module B which defines a concrete type tb and a variable xb of type tb. I would like to build a fonctor F such that C=F(A,B) "reexports" the types and variables of A and B but with tb now being an abstract type. and ta remaining a concrete type . Moreover, I want C.xa to be a value of type C.ta and not a value of type A.ta which would be easy. The reason for that is that I do not want the users of my programs to see modules A and B but only module C. In other words, I try to use CSL modules to perform what was possible in Caml Light using the trick decribed in the section 7.3 of the manual under the title "turning code into a library". I was hoping to be able to do it more cleanly in CSL. But this seems to be impossible or am I wrong? --Guy
