Original bug ID: 4379
Reporter: idadesub
Assigned to: ertai
Status: closed (set by @xavierleroy on 2010-04-29T12:26:10Z)
Resolution: fixed
Priority: normal
Severity: major
Version: 3.10.0
Fixed in version: 3.10+dev
Category: ~DO NOT USE (was: OCaml general)

Bug description

ocamlbuild uses "ocamlbuild -where" to find the libraries to link against myocamlbuild.ml, but on the binary windows version of ocaml, it will always fail because, for some reason, ocamlbuild does not use %OCAMLLIB% to find the ocaml libraries, but hard codes them to a path specified at build time. Mine is currently hardcoded to "/ocamlbuildFiles\Objective Caml\lib".

Does using -install-lib-dir solve your problem?

It does: (I had the same problem, and I solved it using -install-lib-dir)
C:>ocamlbuild -classic-display -install-lib-dir "C:\Program Files\Objective Caml\lib\ocamlbuild" -where
C:\Program Files\Objective Caml\lib\ocamlbuild

However don't worry, the OCAMLLIB variable will be taken in account in future releases.

Thanks for the report. This is now fixed in the CVS (both in trunk and release310 branch).
