Forgive me for asking what might be an easy question, I am just a beginner with Ocaml. I want to do something like this: module M = if arg then M1 else M2 module A = F (M) (* define rest of program using fields of A *) The idea being that arg will come from e.g. the command line, and modules M1, M2 and functor F are defined elsewhere. Of course "module M = if ... " is a syntax error. My question is: how to achieve this behaviour (and generalisations of it) in ocaml? It seems that this is an obvious thing to want to do but I haven't found any clues in the manual or the FAQs. Is it me? -r ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
