ocamlgraph / ocamlfind / ocamlbuild

[Farhan Mannan <fam40@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey,

Until now I've been compiling with a script that looked like 

#!/bin/sh 

ocamlc -g -annot -I +ocamlgraph graph.cma extra.ml node.ml network.ml algorithm.ml topology.ml simulator.ml 

ocamlc -o simulator -I +ocamlgraph graph.cma extra.cmo node.cmo network.cmo algorithm.cmo topology.cmo simulator.cmo

 but since I'm now refactoring quite heavily - and changing the dependencies between the files a lot - I am trying to switch to ocamlbuild.

The name of the main executable changes from simulator to main below:

1. Ideally something like this would work:  "ocamlbuild -use-ocamlfind main.native"

where my _tags file has "ocamlbuild -use-ocamlfind main.native" at the end, but this doesn't at the moment as ocamlfind isn't picking up ocamlgraph (i.e. it doesn't show up when I do "ocamlfind list").

2. Alternatively I was trying to just replicate my original compiler commands with this:

ocamlbuild -cflags -I,+ocamlgraph -lflag graph.cma main.native 

but that doesn't make sense - it doesn't know what to do with graph.cma

So does anyone know how to

1. make findlib/ocamlfind recognise ocamlgraph? I installed ocamlgraph using apt

2. get ocamlbuild to use the graph.cma object file? if I run the command in 2. without graph.cma, it simply complains that Graph is unbound etc.

Thanks,

Farhan
