Hi,
I am trying to grasp the camlp4 constructor for types TyOfAmp,
which is declared as
| TyOfAmp of loc and ctyp and ctyp (* t of & t *)
in camlp4/Camlp4/Camlp4Ast.partial.ml. It is used in the ast of
``[< `A of & int]''.
Can somebody explain the meaning of [< `A of & int]? What is the
difference between [< `A of & int] and [< `A of int] ?
And why does
type 'a t = [< `A of & int] as 'a
produce the weird error
File "test/x.ml", line 1, characters 0-1:
Error: The implementation test/x.ml
does not match the interface (inferred signature):
Type declarations do not match:
type 'a t = 'a constraint 'a = [< `A of & int ]
is not included in
type 'a t = 'a constraint 'a = [< `A of & int ]
? Is this a bug or a feature?
Bye,
Hendrik
