Types AA.t and BB.t are abstract, due to the declarations "module AA : A1" and "module BB : A2" and to the fact that "t" is abstract in both interfaces A1 and A2. You should write instead module AA : A1 with type t = int = ... module BB : A2 with type t = int = ... module C = Make (AA) (BB) (Another possibility is to declare "type t = int" in both signatures A1 and A2 but it is probably not what you want to do.) -- Jean-Christophe Filliātre (http://www.lri.fr/~filliatr) > ----------------- > module type A1 = sig > type t > val test : t -> t -> bool > end > > module type A2 = sig > type t > val toast : t -> t -> bool > end > > module Make (A : A1 ) (B : A2 with type t = A.t) = struct > let fifi a b c = > if c > 1 then A.test a b > else B.toast b a > end > > module AA : A1 = struct > type t = int > let test f1 f2 = true > end > > module BB : A2 = struct > type t = int > let toast f1 f2 = false > end > > module C = Make (AA) (BB) > > --------------------- > > -- > Civilization advances by extending the number > of important operations which we can perform > without thinking.
