about basic file organization

in file testmodule.ml

module TestModule =
struct
  type my_type = MyType1 | MyType2
end

How can I use TestModule in top-level?

after "ocamlc -c testmodule.ml" (this generated testmodule.cmo/cmi)

I tried "open TestModule", but开发者_运维问答 error "unbound module TestModule" occured.

        Objective Caml version 3.10.0

# open TestModule;;
Unbound module TestModule

then, I tried making top-level with that module. but...

indi@www:~/std/toq$ ocamlmktop -o mytop testmodule.ml
indi@www:~/std/toq$ ./mytop
        Objective Caml version 3.10.0

# TestModule.MyType1;;
Unbound constructor TestModule.MyType1
# open TestModule;;
Unbound module TestModule

What can I do for using my TestModule???


The directives you can use in the toplevel to that effect are listed in the manual.

You can try #use "testmodule.ml";;, or, alternatively #load "testmodule.cmo";; after having compiled your module.


As huitseeker mentioned, you can use #use "testmodule.ml";;. However, this will make the module Testmodule avialable, and your TestModule module is actually Testmodule.TestModule. .cmo files (generated from .ml files) define a module whose name is that of the CMO with the first letter capitalized. Therefore, I would omit the module TestModule ... part of your code, and simply put your code in a file called testModule.ml. You can then compile it and use #use "testModule.ml";; to access the module.


Tu summarize: a few minor details all conspired together against you :-)

First, as mentioned previously, you need to load the code into the toplevel with either #use "testmodule.ml";; for source files or #load "testmodule.cmo";; for compiled files, or to use ocamlmktop. This explains why your first attempt did not work: you did not load the code.

Second, you defined module TestModule in a file called testmodule.ml. Keep in mind that the file defines its own module based on its name. So, in order to access your module, you need to write Testmodule.TestModule. This explains why your second attempt did not work: the code was loaded but had an unexpected name.

You might wish to remove the TestModule definition and rename the file to testModule.ml (or the perhaps more idiomatic test_module.ml).
