Hello,
Is it possible to use ocamlc as a front-end to compile and link a C program ?
(Just want to piggyback on ocaml's configure).
Best,
Daniel

You can compile it with ocamlc foo.c, but I think you cannot trick
ocamlc into linking it.

Yes that's the bit I'm missing.

If you compile it, ocamlc will add the compiler options it uses for
itself (like adding -I<stdlib>). This is usually the right thing to do
for compiling wrappers.
I don't think you can link anything without an ml module.

Another way is to extract all the options from ocamlc -config.
