Previously calling 'sysroot_path "/dev"' for example would return the
string "/sysroot//dev". While this is not wrong, it confuses some
external programs (hello, setfiles), and it's not very "clean". Be a
bit more careful to avoid doubling the '/' character in the common case.
Run this command across the source:
perl -pi.bak -e 's/(20[012][0-9])-20[12][012]/$1-2023/g' `git ls-files`
and remove changes to po{,-docs}/*.po{,t} (these will be regenerated
later when we run 'make dist').
This change allows parts of the daemon to be written in the OCaml
programming language. I am using the ‘Main Program in C’ method along
with ‘-output-obj’ to create an object file from the OCaml code /
runtime, as described here:
https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html
Furthermore, change the generator to allow individual APIs to be
implemented in OCaml. This is picked by setting:
impl = OCaml <ocaml_function>;
The generator creates ‘do_function’ (the same one you would have to
write by hand in C), with the function calling the named
‘ocaml_function’ and dealing with marshalling/unmarshalling the OCaml
parameters.
