Hi

maybe you can have a look at findlib and its #require statement. For instance, pxp (xml related library) depends on many cma, but everything loads automagically when invoking #require :


        Objective Caml version 3.11.1

# #use "topfind";;
- : unit = ()
Findlib has been successfully loaded. Additional directives:
  #require "package";;      to load a package
  #list;;                   to list the available packages
  #camlp4o;;                to load camlp4 (standard syntax)
  #camlp4r;;                to load camlp4 (revised syntax)
  #predicates "p,q,...";;   to set these predicates
  Topfind.reset();;         to force that packages will be reloaded
  #thread;;                 to enable threads

- : unit = ()
# #require "pxp";;

Hello.

Imagine I have a file named a.ml containing

module C = struct
 include B
end

and a file named b.ml containing the code

let f x = x + 1

When I compile everything to .cmo files, I cannot load a.cmo from the toplevel without loading b.cmo beforehand.

Is there a way to make the 'include B' statement to include the code of the B module in the C submodule directly so that it is not required to load the b.cmo file before loading the a.cmo file?

That would be extremely useful to me...

All the best,
