(foldoc) | Objective CAML
(Originally "CAML" - Categorical Abstract Machine
Language) A version of ML by G. Huet, G. Cousineau, Ascander
Suarez, Pierre Weis, Michel Mauny and others of INRIA. CAML
is intermediate between LCF ML and SML [in what sense?].
It has first-class functions, static type inference with
polymorphic types, user-defined variant types and {product
types}, and pattern matching. It is built on a proprietary
run-time system.
The CAML V3.1 implementation added lazy and mutable data
structures, a "grammar" mechanism for interfacing with the
Yacc parser generator, pretty-printing tools,
high-performance arbitrary-precision arithmetic, and a
complete library.
in 1990 Xavier Leroy and Damien Doligez designed a new
implementation called CAML Light, freeing the previous
implementation from too many experimental high-level features,
and more importantly, from the old Le_Lisp back-end.
Following the addition of a native-code compiler and a
powerful module system in 1995 and of the object and
class layer in 1996, the project's name was changed to
Objective CAML. In 2000, Jacques Garrigue added labeled and
optional arguments and anonymous variants.
