I think this is rather different from calling C libs from a standalone OCaml code. In my case, i mix the 2 langages in this way : cmain.ml: -------------------------------------------------------- let cmain_ocaml n = try ... ;; let _ = Callback.register "cmain_ocaml" cmain_ocaml -------------------------------------------------------- in a cmain_cpp.cpp , where there is the "real" main() function: -------------------------------------------------------- static value * cmain_closure = NULL; if (cmain_closure==NULL) cmain_closure = caml_named_value("cmain_ocaml"); result = Int_val(callback(*cmain_closure,Val_int(n))); -------------------------------------------------------- It crashses when calling : callback(*cmain_closure...) All is compiled into native solaris object code. The same thing works perfectly on solaris/sparc. -- Mathieu ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
