[Caml-list] cairo 1.2.0 and ocaml 4.06.0

Dear all,

Is somebody still maintaining the cairo-ocaml (
https://www.cairographics.org/cairo-ocaml/) bindings? I am working on a
project which requires lablgtk, cairo and the most recent version of
ocaml-tensorflow. The latter requires ocaml 4.06.0 (due to Unix.map_file),
but this version of the compiler is not compatible with cairo 1.2.0 due to
changes in the String/Bytes modules. I do not see much activity on the
ocaml-cairo bug tracker either.

Could anyone help with that please?

Best regards,
Edouard

There is an alternative binding to Cairo https://github.com/Chris00/ocaml-cairo ("cairo2" in opam) which is maintained.

Hoping it helps,
