]> It would be handy if camlidl would pass a "-traditional-cpp" flag to cpp by default. Here's an example on my Debian 3.0 box: $ camlidl unix.idl unix.idl:13:11: missing terminating " character unix.idl:43:1: missing terminating " character unix.idl:70:5: missing terminating " character unix.idl:72:58: missing terminating " character unix.idl:78:5: missing terminating " character unix.idl:79:41: missing terminating " character unix.idl:104:5: missing terminating " character unix.idl:151:5: missing terminating " character unix.idl: error during preprocessing $ camlidl -prepro "cpp -traditional-cpp" unix.idl The second way works just fine. Documenting this could prevent some confusion.
