What is ExtLib ?

ExtLib is a set of additional useful functions and modules for OCaml. Current goal is to maintain compatibility, new software is encouraged to not use extlib since stdlib is now seeing many additions and improvements which make many parts of extlib obsolete. For tail-recursion safety consider using other libraries e.g. containers.

Dependencies

optional:

Installation

opam install extlib or follow the manual instructions below.

Build with dune:

dune build

or with Makefile:

make minimal=1 build
make install

This will build and install bytecode and native libraries.

On bytecode-only architecture run

make minimal=1 all
make install

minimal=1 will exclude from build several modules (namely Base64 Unzip UChar UTF8) potentially conflicting with other well-established OCaml libraries. If your code is expecting to find these modules in extlib - omit this parameter during build to produce the full library.

Usage
