OCaml构建错误:输入int而不是type unit

我想尝试OCaml FFI并绑定一些像C这样的C函数 ncurses教程,但我选择了ecore_evas(efl):

这是我想要使用的功能:

void ecore_main_loop_quit(void)
void ecore_main_loop_begin(void)
int ecore_evas_init(void)
int ecore_evas_shutdown(void)
Ecore_Evas * ecore_evas_new(const char *, int, int, int, int, const char *)
ecore_evas_title_set(const Ecore_Evas *, const char *)
ecore_evas_show(ee)
ecore_evas_free(ee)

所以我用这个创建文件ecore_evas.ml:

open Ctypes
open Foreign
let ecore_main_loop_begin = foreign "ecore_main_loop_begin" (void @->
returning void)
let ecore_main_loop_quit = foreign "ecore_main_loop_quit" (void @->
returning void)
let ecore_evas_init = foreign "ecore_evas_init" (void @-> returning int)
let ecore_evas_shutdown = foreign "ecore_evas_shutdown" (void @->
returning int)
type ecore_evas = unit ptr
let ecore_evas : ecore_evas typ = ptr void
let ecore_evas_new = foreign "ecore_evas_new" (string @-> int @-> int
@-> int @-> int @-> string @-> returning ecore_evas)
let ecore_evas_title_set = foreign "ecore_evas_title_set" (ecore_evas
@-> string @-> returning void)
let ecore_evas_show = foreign "ecore_evas_show" (ecore_evas @->
returning void)
let ecore_evas_free = foreign "ecore_evas_free" (ecore_evas @->
returning void)

然后我用这些命令创建了一个mli文件:

corebuild -pkg ctypes.foreign ecore_evas.inferred.mli
cp _build/ecore_evas.inferred.mli ./

ecore_evas.inferred.mli

val ecore_main_loop_begin : unit -> unit
val ecore_main_loop_quit : unit -> unit
val ecore_evas_init : unit -> int
val ecore_evas_shutdown : unit -> int
type ecore_evas = unit Ctypes.ptr
val ecore_evas : ecore_evas Ctypes_static.typ
val ecore_evas_new : bytes -> int -> int -> int -> int -> bytes ->
ecore_evas
val ecore_evas_title_set : ecore_evas -> bytes -> unit
val ecore_evas_show : ecore_evas -> unit
val ecore_evas_free : ecore_evas -> unit

我用:

创建了一个ecore_evas_window.ml
open Ecore_evas
let () =
ecore_main_loop_begin ();
ecore_evas_init ();
let ee = ecore_evas_new "" 50 50 300 300 "" in
ecore_evas_title_set ee "This is a test";
ecore_evas_show ee

然后我尝试用

编译
corebuild -pkg ctypes.foreign -lflags -cclib,-lecore_evas
ecore_evas_window.native

但是我有这样的错误信息:

+ ocamlfind ocamlc -c -w A-4-33-40-41-42-43-34-44 -strict-sequence -g
-bin-annot -short-paths -thread -package ctypes.foreign -package core

File "ecore_evas_window.ml", line 4, characters 2-21:

unit
Command exited with code 2.
Hint: Recursive traversal of subdirectories was not enabled for this build,
as the working directory does not look like an ocamlbuild project (no
'_tags' or 'myocamlbuild.ml' file). If you have modules in
subdirectories,
you should add the option "-r" or create an empty '_tags' file.

To enable recursive traversal for some subdirectories only, you can
use the
following '_tags' file:

true: -traverse
<dir1> or <dir2>: traverse

此消息清楚地表明问题与线路有关 ecore_evas_init ();但我真的不明白为什么会产生这个错误。

修改 由于@hcarty,原始问题已经解决,但完整代码无效。如果需要,可以找到工作版本here

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:2)

ecore_evas_init会返回int。该行的;隐含地表示“左边的表达式返回unit”。由于ecore_evas_init ()返回一个整数,因此类型不匹配。您有几个简单的选项:

  1. 将现有行替换为:

    let _ = ecore_evas_init () in
    

    将忽略返回的值。

  2. 对返回值执行一些检查:

    assert (ecore_evas_init () = 0); (* Or whatever the "success" status is *)
    
  3. 明确忽略结果:

    ignore(ecore_evas_init ());
    

    大致相当于let _ = ...

  4. 在完整的应用程序中,您可能需要更复杂的错误处理,但这应该足以继续使用此示例应用程序。
