with the CVS Printf.kprintf, you can do something like
<<
type res = int

class ['a] query (q: ('a, unit, string, res) format) = 
object(self)
  method execute = Printf.kprintf self#execute_string q
  method execute_string = String.length (* or sthg more interesting *)
end

class dbh = 
object
  method prepare : 'a. ('a, unit, string, res) format -> 'a query = 
    new query
end

let dbh = new dbh
let q1 = dbh#prepare "toto %d"
let q2 = dbh#prepare "titi %s %f"
let a1 = q1#execute 1000 
let a2 = q2#execute "arf" 3.3
>>

if you are not using the cvs version, you can still use exceptions, but
this becomes quite ugly

hope this helps,
