C++ compilers need to do "name-mangling" in order to support
overloading functions. This adds information about the types of the
arguments to the function's name, and makes it hard for O'Caml to
find.
I suspect that using the following prototype would work for you:
extern "C" {
value dhml_Try(value dummy);
}
the `extern "C"' part requests that the following be done with C
calling conventions. I'm not up on my C++, so this may be
insufficient when you're defining the function in the current
file--you may need to use the extern declaration around the function's
definition.
