[Caml-list] IoXML goes on...

[Daniel de Rauglaudre]

Hi all,

I just released version 0.4 of IoXML. See the file CHANGES to see what
happened this week-end:
   http://cristal.inria.fr/~ddr/IoXML/

   ---

IoXML is a Camlp4 syntax extension for OCaml mli and ml files which
generates XML parsers and printers for all types you define. It offers
a kind of input_value/output_value but in XML instead of binary.
Useful to export your data to other programs, or to save it, to debug
by traces, to be fashionable, and so on...

Do you also already have a syntax extension that generates parsers and
printers for data in OCaml-syntax? This would be extremely useful to
many people, especially if one isn't particularly keen on XML... ;)

Thanks for your work!

Markus Mottl

It does not exist but I can do that, I am going to look at it...

I tested IoXML 0.1 and I found it quite amazing, so I also build up the
corresponding debian package and I'm wondering if or not upload such a
little package in the overcrowded debian archive.

So I would like to know if there is intention to add this syntax
extension (and possibly others) written in camlp4 to the official OCaml
distribution.

TIA,
Cheers.

I am thinking of it. In the first beginning, I considered that it was
not really a part of the compiler (XML is not OCaml), but this
morning, I used it to trace my data, and I saw that it could be useful
for debugging: in this case, it may have its place in Camlp4
distribution.

But I am still hesitating...

I am also thinking of Markus Mottl's request (print and parse in OCaml
syntax), as an option of IoXML or another program, it depends on how
the things can be shared. I am looking at it.
