Re: [Caml-list] Linking with zlib on ubuntu

[Aziem Chawdhary <aziem@chawdhary.co.uk>]

I think the linker flag is in the wrong place. So (from the
github gist), instead of doing:

ocamlopt -cclib -lz main.cmx test.o -o binary

do the following:

ocamlopt test.o -cclib -lz main.cmx -o binary

This passes the linker flags to gcc in the correct order (i.e -lz before
test.o). You can see the gcc commands invoked by adding the -verbose option
to ocamlopt.


Thanks,
Aziem
