If you know the type of this string in advance, you can do so with ocaml_plugin: https://github.com/janestreet/ocaml_plugin

Hi,

I would like to ask, what is the easiest way how to:
- take given string, provided by the user at run time
- run it through lexer --> parser --> check given value, in the current context, has a given type
- and bind the value to a variable (provided there were no lexing/parsing/typechecking problems).

(I am not yet 100% sure, that this is the right direction to solve my problem, but I am quite interested whether I could solve it this way.)
