[Caml-list] ocamlmktop: 3.04 differs from 3.00

[Caml-list] ocamlmktop: 3.04 differs from 3.00

[Francois Thomasset]

Hi Camlers
If I try to build my own toplevel, I get an error under 3.04:
ocamlmktop -custom -o mytop nums.cma
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: illegal option -- E
usage: ld [-abd:e:f:h:il:mo:rstu:z:B:D:F:GI:L:M:N:Q:R:S:VY:] file(s)
        [-a]            create an absolute file
	...
Error while building custom runtime system

With 3.00 (or 3.01) it does run smoothly:
ocamlmktop-3.00 -custom -o mytop nums.cma
I do get a top level with the BigNums.
What's wrong?

As ld has its platform specific variations it's hard to tell the
error without knowing under which OS this happens. Guessing
from the ld message it is neither Linux nor any BSD variant
(including Mac OS X).

Hmmm. And what is the output of
"ocamlmktop -custom -o mytop nums.cma -verbose"?

Re: [Caml-list] ocamlmktop: 3.04 differs from 3.00

-E is passed to the gnu linker, but not to the Sun linker.
Maybe you installed gcc again on your system, without --with-gnu-ld?
Or maybe you did not run "configure" again in building ocaml for the
sun?  A quick solution would be to say:
    ocamlmktop -cc gcc -custom -o mytop nums.cma
which will pass no arguments to gcc, and therefore no argument to the
linker (add -verbose to see the difference).

Hope this helps,

Manos
