Which build tool to use?

Hello, I'm dipping my toes into the OCaml waters again. I'm working on a project implemented in C/C++, it's lacking tests in many areas, some of which require having a server process running. I thought I'd start with using OCaml to implement a mock server so I can test the client libs. The C/C++ project uses CMake to build and now I'd like to plug my OCaml build into it, but what to use? So far I've simply run `corebuild` (a simple wrapper around `ocamlbuild`), but that leaves some build stuff in the source folder (that sort of breaks with CMake's tradition of building out-of-source). I've found at least two OCaml build tools, `omake` and `oasis` (besides `ocamlbuild`). Is anyone preferred over the other for new projects? /M -- Magnus Therning OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4 email: [email protected] jabber: [email protected] twitter: magthe http://therning.org/magnus For every problem there is a solution which is clear, simple, and wrong. -- HL Mencken
