Nothing of the sort.
But on the platforms it compiles to, Ocaml can generate object files that look like they came from C. I use this feature right now to integrate a compiler in an otherwise C++ project. Here's a link to the FFI documentation: http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html http://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html
But I run on Debian stable on x86-64. Not exactly an exotic platform.
- jjnoakes 10y agoIs this not the bytecode embedded in C which I mentioned above?
- loup-vaillant 10y agoNo. It's native code, with the native runtime embedded in C.
- jjnoakes 10y agoI see. So it gets me part of the way there; if only ocaml ran on my platforms. Thanks.
