Quite often, I’m sharing my OCaml work as standard shared objects (aka .so or
.dll). I recently manage to compile such a project with dune.
A shared_object linking mode was recently added to dune. I tried to take
advantage of it to simplify my jbuild dune files. Without success. :-(
I’m creating the current project, in order to understand how to set things (and get help on a concrete project).
Thanks to @diml who pointed my mistakes, this now works!
Tests were performed with development version of jbuilder:
$ jbuilder --version 1.0+beta19-33-g73231bf
The current version has been adapted for dune.
The lib/ directory is there to provide a two functions pure OCaml lib:
mylib, which is to be shared to C users (I’ll jump later to a more complex
OCaml library that will have to be linked to third parties C lib).

This directory contains a portable `dune` way to build direct.so.
This directory contains a C test file that makes use of direct.so.
To test, just do make test.
