Hello list !
Is there an #include like directive in camlp4 ? I tried #use "foo.ml",
it works alone, but not in the following case:
module Bar = struct
#use "foo.ml"
end
.
Here is my problem:
I'd like to structure my code in modules, say I have the modules Plot,
Topo and Main. Both modules Plot and Topo contain (among others) a
submodule named Line, so in the module Main I have calls to
Plot.Line.foo and to Topo.Line.bar. No problems.
But now, since the modules are quite big, I'd like to put them into
separate directories: sources/topo/<lots of files> and
sources/plot/<lots of files>. And I'd like to have the submodules Line
in their own files : sources/topo/line.ml and sources/plot/line.ml.
Everything compiles fine with the -pack option. But I don't know how to
generate documentation, since I have no plot.ml or topo.ml files. And
passing -I plot -I topo makes ocamldoc complain about several
definitions of module Line.
I tried creating a file sources/plot.ml with
module Line = struct include Line_aux end
and passing only '-I plot' when compiling (without linking) plot.ml. It
works, but I can't generate documentation.
I then thought of (file plot.ml)
module Line = struct
#use "plot/line.ml"
end
but it's not accepted by camlp4.
So my question is: Is there a canonical way to have submodules with the
same name (in different modules) in separate files, allowing to generate
documentation and use ocamlopt ? It would be even better if the
directory tree would be reflected in the module tree.
I know I could rename my modules Plot.Line_plot and Topo.Line_topo, but
it's not satisfying.
Thanks,
Jean-Baptiste.
