Subject: [Caml-list] OCaml 3.00 compatibility
Date: Sun, 20 May 2012 21:43:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <023b01cd36c9$39cdafc0$ad690f40$@ffconsultancy.com> (raw)


I'm trying to resurrect an old OCaml code base that appears to be written
against OCaml 3.00. The Windows installers for OCaml 3.00 and 3.01 don't run
on this machine. I've managed to compile it using OCaml 3.12 but the output
doesn't seem to be what is expected so I'm guessing it's a backward
compatibility issue.

What changes have broken backward compatibility since OCaml 3.00 (in 2000)
and when were they brought in?

I remember something about equality and floating point numbers...
