Hello,
The API function "rule" for Ocamlbuild has an argument "~tags" which
seems to be used, in the file "ocaml_specific.ml" of the Ocamlbuild
source, to restrict the rule to targets using specific tags.
However, when I tried to add a rule in my plugin, the rule is called
whatever the tags of the file may be.
How can I control when a rule will be triggered using tags? I need to
restrict my rule to files that use tag "test", for instance.
Thanks,
Romain Bardou

Forget about the ~tags argument of the "rule" function, it's a deprecated
feature (as the last documentation of the function say it).

Yes the argument is ignored.

You can't, but perhaps is there another way to obtain the same final result.
