[Caml-list] Generating module lists automatically

[Caml-list] Generating module lists automatically

[Yaron Minsky]

Does anyone have a reasonable solution to the problem of automatically
generating dependencies and topologically sorted module lists for
executables?  omake seems to do a good job for managing dependencies
between automatically, but I don't see any good way of generating a
topologically sorted list of names automatically within omake.  Camlmake
(http://www.davidb.org/camlmake/) seems to be the right kind of thing, but
does not appear to be maintained anymore.  I'm wondering if there are any
other good options out there.

I may be missing the point of your email, but FWIW this is what I'm
using in my Makefiles now:

dep:    .depend 
depend: .depend 
 
.depend: 
        rm -f .depend 
        ocamldep $(OCAMLCINCS) *.mli *.ml > $@
 
ifeq ($(wildcard .depend),.depend) 
include .depend 
endif 
 
.PHONY: dep depend 

My object files are already sorted (by hand) so linking just works.

Rich.
