Ocaml compile multiple files (circular dependencies)

I have downloaded xml-light for ocaml and try to compile it, but it has never been succeeded, the problem is as follow.

When I in开发者_如何学Cput ocamlopt dtd.ml, there will be an error Unbound module Xml. Then I input ocamlopt xml.ml, there will be an error Unbound value XmlParser.make. Then I input ocamlopt xmlParser.ml, there will be an error Unbound module Dtd.

is there actually a way to compile them together? I feel so stupid because of this.

It is not so trivial, nothing surprising. Here is the output of make (from mingw/cygwin ocaml distribution):

ocamlyacc xml_parser.mly
ocamlc  xml.mli
ocamlc  dtd.mli
ocamlc  xml_parser.mli
ocamlc  -c xml_parser.ml
ocamllex xml_lexer.mll
ocamlc  xml_lexer.mli
ocamlc  -c xml_lexer.ml
ocamlc  -c dtd.ml
ocamlc  xmlParser.mli
ocamlc  -c xmlParser.ml
ocamlc  -c xml.ml
ocamlc -o xml-light.cma -a  xml_parser.cmo xml_lexer.cmo dtd.cmo xmlParser.cmo xml.cmo

And the test:

ocamlc xml-light.cma test.ml -o test.exe

make install output:

ocamlopt  -c xml_parser.ml
ocamlopt  -c xml_lexer.ml
ocamlopt  -c dtd.ml
ocamlopt  -c xmlParser.ml
ocamlopt  -c xml.ml
ocamlopt -o xml-light.cmxa -a  xml_parser.cmx xml_lexer.cmx dtd.cmx xmlParser.cmx xml.cmx

cp xml-light.cmxa xml-light.a xml-light.cma xml.mli xmlParser.mli dtd.mli xml.cmi xmlParser.cmi dtd.cmi xml.cmx dtd.cmx xmlParser.cmx `ocamlc -where`

Note the last line (i've separated it with newline): you probably won't have cp command; just create %OCAMLLIB%\xml-light directory manually and copy listed files there. Then you can build your project like this:

ocamlopt -I +xml-light xml-light.cmxa foo.ml -o foo.exe
