如何使用ocamlbuild构建基于utop的自定义顶层？

Question

I want to create a utop-based toplevel for my project, which is built by ocamlbuild .

However, ocamlbuild supports only mktoplevel, built from *.mltop . It doesn't mention utop anywhere in the docs.

Also, the utop manual explains just toplevel creation by jbuilder and doesn't even mention ocamlbuild . It also explains building via ocamlfind , but strongly discourages that approach.

So how should I create my utop-based toplevel?

Or, is this a totally wrong approach and I should do something different to get my utop-based toplevel. If so, what is the recommended way?

Answer 1

The custom-utop example from the utop sources used to be built with ocamlbuild and was later to jbuilder. See this older version for an example.
