Camomile library tutorial/examples?

[Morozov Matvey]

Dear all,

I am an inexperienced OСaml coder, so my question may seem trivial.

Recently I tried to add some unicode support to my project (for instance I need to convert Cyrillic characters from uppercase to lowercase and vice versa). I found the impressive Camomile library, which should help me to solve my problems. However I had not found any tutorial or even up-to-date (simple!) examples of the library usage. Would you be so kind to point me to a good introduction to Camomile?

With best regards,

Matvey Morozov

  I don't know of any good documentation on Camomile, but here is a
code that converts line from terminal to uppercase and lowercase,
assuming that your terminal's encoding is utf8.

===== camotest.ml =====
open Printf
module PREF = CamomileLibrary.Default.Camomile
module CE = PREF.CharEncoding
module CM = PREF.CaseMap.Make(PREF.UTF8)

let _ =
  try
    while true do printf "> %!";
      let line = input_line stdin in
      let up = CM.uppercase line
      and low = CM.lowercase line
      in printf "ORIG : %s\nUPPER: %s\nLOWER: %s\n%!" line up low
    done
  with
  | End_of_file -> ()
===== / camotest.ml =====

$ ocamlfind ocamlc -package camomile -linkpkg camotest.ml -o camotest
$ ./camotest


btw, if you speak russian (as I can guess), you can join the jabber conference
ocaml@conference.jabber.ru , some questions are solved faster than via
mail-lists.
