With camltk, you can program nice graphical user interfaces in Objective Caml, portable to any Unix/X-Windows platform as well as to Windows 95/NT. Currently (as of ocamltk41), the library requires Objective Caml 1.06 (it will not compile with previous versions of Objective Caml), and Tcl/Tk version 7.5/4.1 or 7.6/4.2. The source distribution is available at ftp://ftp.inria.fr/INRIA/Projects/cristal/caml-light/ocamltk41-R106.tar.gz The binary distributions of Objective Caml 1.06 already include camltk. Apart from various fixes and internal cleanup, the main novelties in this version are : support for the native ocamlopt compiler, support for Windows 95/NT (very little testing was done, though), crude support for raw pixmap manipulations. camltk is written and maintained by: Jun Furuse, Francois Pessaux, Francois Rouaix. The main page for camltk is Changes since first version of ocamltk41: - Updated to O'Caml 1.06 (C interface changes) - Added support for ocamlopt - Added support for Windows NT (except some accessory parts of ocamltk41) - Added support for BLT Drag&Drop - Added -o and -I options to tkcompiler - Added support for Japanese mode autodetection (jtk) - Added support for raw pixmap - Bug fixes: * focus in Frx_ctext * jpf/Balloon fix * Text.insert (tag parameter was incorrect) - Internal changes * removed Hashtblc now that space leaks in Hashtbl have been fixed * added display of compactions in Frx_mem * access to Tcl variables is now done in C (Tcl_Get/SetVar) instead of interpreted Tcl "set var". It should be possible to compile with Tcl/Tk8.0. Fixed variable traces management (free didn't remove traces). - Compilation does not need Tk source tree. -- Francois.Rouaix@inria.fr Projet Cristal - INRIA Rocquencourt
