Original bug ID: 4619
Reporter: Yoric
Assigned to: @Octachron
Status: resolved (set by @Octachron on 2016-12-07T18:58:12Z)
Resolution: fixed
Priority: normal
Severity: feature
Version: 3.10.2
Fixed in version: 4.01.0
Category: ~DO NOT USE (was: OCaml general)

Bug description

At the moment, objinfo is provided solely as an executable. It would be interesting to have a version of objinfo as a OCaml library. This could be helpful to write IDEs and other code-manipulation tools.

The objinfo tool is mostly made up of glue code between modules that are part of the compiler-libs, which are available since OCaml 4.01. A higher-level library for IDE integration is certainly possible, but it can be provided outside of the compiler distribution.
