Rader" To: caml-list@inria.fr Subject: [Caml-list] Byte-code -> native code conversion? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-caml-list@pauillac.inria.fr Precedence: bulk In theory, is it possible to "convert" a Caml byte-code program into a native executable (without the source code of that program being available)? I'm wondering if it would be possible to distribute Caml programs in byte-code format for portability, and the user may then choose to compile the program to native code for speed. Is this possible? Difficult? Any thoughts?
