Subject: RE: [Caml-list] How to handle system decencies in Ocaml (like O_ASYNC not implemented in cygwin)
Date: Sat, 7 May 2016 08:37:22 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0F7D3B1B3C4B894D824F5B822E3E5A172CEEFECE@IRSMSX102.ger.corp.intel.com> (raw)

Dear Jérôme,
it is easy to detect with preprocessor defines if O_ASYNC is supported or not on the C level. I wondered what would be the most appropriate way to inform OCaml of the situation. I guess I should just call caml_failwith("O_ASYNC not supported by Cygwin") in the async function on cygwin? Maybe a "not supported" standard exception would be a nice thing to handle system dependencies.
Best regards,
Michael
