Re: [Caml-list] ocamlc compiles hello world, ocamlopt not

[r0ller@freemail.hu]

Hi Basile,

Thanks! I'll definitely have a look at it even though compiling a whole ocaml project will be challenging:) Yet another really bold question: I do not know, how the original ocamlopt is built but if it's also built from bytecode, can ocamlcc be used to build ocamlopt?

Thanks&regards,
r0ller
