Subject: [Caml-list] Conditional BuildDepends in OASIS
Date: Thu, 25 Oct 2012 06:57:09 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1351173429.15638.YahooMailNeo@web111503.mail.gq1.yahoo.com> (raw)

Hi,

I'm in the process of oasifying PG'OCaml, and I've hit a snag.
By default PG'OCaml depends on ExtLib, but it's possible to
use Batteries instead.  Below is a fragment of my (naïve) first
attempt at telling OASIS about this configuration option:


Flag "use_batteries"
  Description: Use Batteries instead of ExtLib
  Default: false

Library "pgocaml"
  Path:                 src
  Modules:              PGOCaml
  BuildTools:           ocamlbuild, camlp4
  BuildDepends:         calendar
  if flag(use_batteries)
    BuildDepends+:      batteries
    ByteOpt+:           -ppopt -DUSE_BATTERIES
    NativeOpt+:         -ppopt -DUSE_BATTERIES
  else
    BuildDepends+:      extlib

The problem is that OASIS complains about BuildDepends being

placed inside a conditional.  Is this an oversight, or are there good
reasons (and hopefully a standard workaround) for this limitation?

Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Dario Teixeira
