[Caml-list] [ANN] OBus 1.1
Jérémie Dimino
I'm happy to announce the release 1.1 of OBus, a pure OCaml
implementation of the D-Bus protocol.
OBus aims to make it easy to use and provide D-Bus services in OCaml. It
can generate interfaces to D-Bus services from introspection files, it
provides integration of D-Bus methods, signals and properties to native
ocaml functions, mapping between D-Bus types and OCaml types, ... But it
is also possible to write low-level D-Bus application using OBus.
OBus is distributed with predefined OCaml interfaces to the following
services: Hal, NetworkManager, Popup notifications, PolicyKit, UDisks
and UPower.

> Are there any example of the use of OBus?
There are small examples in the archive. I don't think there are yet
applications using it, except one i wrote as part of the control system
of a robot.
> Was OBus written for certain application in mind?
No. I tried to make it as general as possible.

I've been waiting for this announcement :)

- By the way, I got this with Ocaml 3.11.1 and lwt 2.1.1. Maybe it's
related to my first question.

I think Jeremie should add:
OASISVersion: >= 3.11.2
to its _oasis file.

Yes.
If you are using debian there is a repository with ocaml 3.12 here:
http://ocaml.debian.net/debian/ocaml-3.12.0
