[Caml-list] camldebug with emacs

[Caml-list] camldebug with emacs

[Johann Spies]

I am trying to get camldebug to work with emacs.  According to
the manual it is about the easiest way to do it.

But, what I read in the manual, does not work with emacs.
According to the tuareg manual I should be able to do the
following:

`M-x camldebug' FILE starts the Caml debugger camldebug on the executable
FILE, with input and output in an Emacs buffer named *camldebug-FILE*.

But I am not able to type in a file name with M-x camldebug.
I can only type in M-x camldebug, M-x camldebug-mode or M-x
camldebug-step and if I choose the first or last one I get:
Symbol function definition is void: camldebug-call or
Symbol function definition is void: camldebug-mode-map.  

What am I missing or is this a bug in tuareg mode?

It works fine for me with the normal caml-mode.  (I should know,
because I wrote it :)  Admittedly, this is still 3.01.

I guess what you see is a "minor incompatibility" with Tuareg.  I
don't think the ocaml maintainers can be bothered documenting how a
contributed piece of Emacs code that isn't part of the distribution
works.  I think you have to take this up with Tuareg's author.
