OCaml - Cannot find graphics.cma

Question

When loading the Graphics module in the toplevel, I get an error saying \"Cannot find graphics.cma\".

I\'m using OS X and I\'m pretty sure I\'ve installed OCaml corr

Answer 1

First of all, check Graphics is really installed. This library is optional and therefore it may not be installed. There are several ways to check but the following should work for any situation:

$ ls `ocamlc -where`/graphics*

If there is no file listed by the above command, Graphics is not installed and you have to reinstall OCaml compiler enabling Graphics.

If files like graphics.cma are there, then you have to show us how you try to compile your code with Graphics. The best answer varies depending on how you compile: inside toplevel, hand compiling with ocamlc, or with some build tool like ocamlbuild.
