NAME

       ocamldsort - Dependency sorter for OCaml source files

SYNOPSIS

       ocamldsort [ -pp  pre-command ] [ -d dep-command ]
                  [ -mli ] [ -nox ] [ -obj | -byte | -opt ] [ filename ] ...

DESCRIPTION

       The  ocamldsort(1)  command  scans a set of OCaml source files (.ml and .mli files), sorts
       them according to their dependencies and prints the sorted files in order  to  link  their
       corresponding .cmo files.

       For  ocamldsort(1) to work it must get a list of dependencies generated by ocamldep(1), if
       the standard input to ocamldsort(1) has been redirected then ocamldsort assumes that  this
       is  a dependency file generated by ocamldep(1).  Otherwise ocamldsort calls ocamldep(1) to
       generate the dependency list itself. In either case the source files to be  sorted  should
       be given as arguments to the ocamldsort(1) command.

       ocamldsort(1) can be used to compile and link simple projects with one command, such as:

       ocamlc $(ocamldsort *.ml)

       if your project doesn't contain .mli files or:

       ocamlc -c $(ocamldsort -mli *.ml *.mli) && ocamlc $(ocamldsort -byte *.ml)

       if it contains .mli files.

       However  for  larger  projects  where separate compilation is desirable, ocamldsort(1) can
       also be used from within a makefile. Here is a typical makefile example:

       TARGET=my_program
       OCAMLC=ocamlc
       OCAMLOPT=ocamlopt
       OCAMLDEP=ocamldep
       OCAMLDSORT=ocamldsort

       PPFLAGS=-pp camlp4o

       MLY=$(shell echo *.mly)
       MLL=$(shell echo *.mll)
       GENERATED_ML=$(MLY:.mly=.ml) $(MLL:.mll=.ml)

       include .generated .depend .ocamldsort

       $(TARGET): $(CMO_FILES)
            $(OCAMLC) $(COMPFLAGS) $(LIBS) $^ -o $@

       $(TARGET).opt: $(CMX_FILES)
            $(OCAMLOPT) $(COMPFLAGS) $(LIBS_OPT) $^ -o $@

       .generated: $(GENERATED_ML)
            @touch .generated

       .depend: .generated
            $(OCAMLDEP) *.ml *.mli > $@

       .ocamldsort: .depend
            echo CMO_FILES=`< .depend $(OCAMLDSORT) -byte *.ml` > .ocamldsort
            echo CMX_FILES=`< .depend $(OCAMLDSORT) -opt *.ml` >> .ocamldsort

       distclean: clean
            rm -f .generated .depend .ocamldsort
            rm -f $(GENERATED_ML)
            rm -f *~
            rm -f $(TARGET)

       clean:
            rm -f *.cmo *.cmi *.cmx *.o

       .SUFFIXES: .mli .ml .cmi .cmo .cmx .mll .mly

       %.cmi:%.mli
            $(OCAMLC) $(PPFLAGS) $(COMPFLAGS) -c $<

       %.cmo:%.ml
            $(OCAMLC) $(PPFLAGS) $(COMPFLAGS) -c $<

       %.cmi %.cmo:%.ml
            $(OCAMLC) $(PPFLAGS) $(COMPFLAGS) -c $<

       %.cmx %.o:%.ml
            $(OCAMLOPT) $(PPFLAGS) $(COMPFLAGS) -c $<

       %.ml:%.mll
            $(OCAMLLEX) $<

       %.mli %.ml:%.mly
            $(OCAMLYACC) -v $<

OPTIONS

       The following command-line options are recognized by ocamlsort(1):

       -I directory
              Add the given directory to the list of directories searched for source files.

       -pp pre-command
              Command to preprocess file.

       -d dep-command
              Command to compute dependencies.  ocamldep(1) by default.

       -mli   Sort files using mli dependencies.

       -nox   Ignore filenames containing `*' so that unexpanded wildcards are ignored.

       -obj   Print bytecode filenames (.cmo and .cmi) (deprecated: use -byte).

       -byte  Print bytecode filenames (.cmo and .cmi).

       -opt   Print opt filenames (.cmx and .cmi).

       -v     Output version information and exit.

       -help, --help
              Output help and exit.
