-
ocamlfind
: This is the main command used to invoke OCamlfind, a package manager for OCaml programs. It helps in handling dependencies and locating installed packages. -
ocamlopt
: This is the OCaml compiler command. It is followed by various options to control the compilation process. -
-package ${package1},${package2}
: This option specifies the packages that the program depends on.${package1},${package2}
are placeholders for the actual package names. Multiple package names can be specified separated by commas. -
-linkpkg
: This option tells the compiler to link the required packages. -
-o ${path-to-executable}
: This option specifies the output file name and path for the resulting executable.${path-to-executable}
is a placeholder for the actual path. -
${path-to-source-ml}
: This is the path to the OCaml source file that needs to be compiled. It should have the.ml
file extension.
Overall, this command is used to compile an OCaml program, specifying the required packages, and produce an executable file at the specified location.
