The findlib package manager for OCaml. Simplifies linking executables with external libraries. More information: http://projects.camlcity.org/projects/findlib.html.

  • Compile a source file to a native binary and link with packages:

ocamlfind ocamlopt -package {{package1}},{{package2}} -linkpkg -o {{path/to/executable}} {{path/to/source.ml}}

  • Compile a source file to a bytecode binary and link with packages:

ocamlfind ocamlc -package {{package1}},{{package2}} -linkpkg -o {{path/to/executable}} {{path/to/source.ml}}

  • Cross-compile for a different platform:

ocamlfind -toolchain {{cross-toolchain}} ocamlopt -o {{path/to/executable}} {{path/to/source.ml}}
