Summary: Review Request: ocaml-deriving - Extension to OCaml for deriving functions from types https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435431 ------- Additional Comments From rjones@xxxxxxxxxx 2008-05-12 06:49 EST ------- License: Yes, it's MIT. Particularly stupid on my part because I even asked upstream to release a new version (0.1.1a) with the license file included, but then I forgot to fix my spec file :-( Lack of *.cmo file: This is a one-of-a-kind upstream. Normal syntax extensions are loadable object files (*.cmo) so they get loaded into the normal OCaml parser at compile time. The object files consist of a list of instructions for the parser, like 'add this keyword', 'delete this parsing rule', 'substitute this other parsing rule'. This means that syntax extensions are composable (you can use more than one at a time). But for this one, upstream have linked the syntax extension to a standalone program (/usr/bin/deriving) which one is supposed to use as a preprocessor (it takes OCaml + deriving syntax and emits basic OCaml). I've just realised that this is not a smart upstream choice because it prevents the syntax from being composable with other syntaxes, so you cannot mix the deriving syntax with any other syntax extension. Here's a new package: Spec URL: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/ocaml/ocaml-deriving.spec SRPM URL: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/ocaml/ocaml-deriving-0.1.1a-3.fc9.src.rpm * Mon May 10 2008 Richard W.M.
