Hi everyone and Happy 2005.

As the subject says, my aim is to write a function that is able to
covert into a string a generic polymorphic constructor, or at least its
name, without using patter matching.
Something like the operation that the ocaml toplevel already does:

# let a = `Hi;;
val a : [> `Hi ] = `Hi
-------------------^    I'd like to have this string

I tried using the Obj module, but I got only segmentation faults.
I know that the Obj module has not to be used, but what I want to write
will be placed into a library with a signature like this:

val string_of_polymorphic : [> `Dummy ] -> string

Thanks in advance to anyone for hints, or links, or wathever help you
can give me.

Luca
