I am trying to compile the latest cvs version of ocaml sources on
cygwin. I get the following error messag:
cd camlp4; make all
make[1]: Entering directory
`/cygdrive/c/Programs/ocaml-cvs-cygwin/camlp4'
../boot/ocamlrun -I ../otherlibs/unix -I ../otherlibs/win32unix ../ocaml
-I ../stdlib -I ../otherlibs/unix build/build.ml
Cannot load required shared library dllunix.
Reason: dynamic loading not supported on this platform.
Reference to undefined global `Unix'
Does anybody know if there is an easy fix?
BTW, I need the cvs version because of some fixes that did not make it
in 3.09.3
Thanks,
George

George,
Neither 3.09.3 nor the current cvs HEAD compiled OOTB under Cygwin with
full fuctionality. I've made some changes that enabled dynamic loading,
etc, for the currently released package. I also had a more extensive set
of changes that allowed a more seamless integration with Cygwin, but those
apparently broke the one major user of O'Caml under Cygwin (namely
Unison), and I had no chance to investigate that. I don't have much time
to work on it right now, but I can certainly send you the patch I used.
Please let me know if you succeed in adapting it for cvs HEAD.

The new Camlp4, or more exactly the build procedure for the new Camlp4,
needs some porting to work under Windows. I'm working on it when I can
find the time. If you're in a hurry, and do not use Camlp4, consider
changing the top Makefile to not build it.

Hi,
Ok, I am glad that I am not alone. For now I use 3.09.3 (which
compiled for me) and I will watch out for announcements when I can
compile the HEAD of the revision tree.
Unfortunately, I need camlp4 because I am hacking on Coq.
George.

Hi,
If you're stuck using windows but needing unix/linux then I'd recommend
colinux:
http://www.colinux.org/
Takes a bit to install and set up but in my experience has provided a
nearly flawless linux environment.
Cheers,
Andy

It's worked well for me, too.
