Package: ocaml-ulex08 (0.8-10 and others)

OCaml lexer generator with Unicode support - CamlP5 version

ulex is a lexer generator for the Objective Caml (OCaml) programming language.

It is implemented as a Camlp4 syntax extension: lexer specifications are embedded in regular OCaml code.

Generated lexers work with a new kind of "lexbuf" that supports Unicode; a single lexer can work with arbitrary encodings of the input stream.

This package ships the latest release of ulex compatible with Camlp4 pre OCaml 3.10 (now called CamlP5). Applications which need both ulex and the legacy version of Camlp4 might need to use this package instead of ocaml-ulex (the latter shipping the latest available ulex release which requires Camlp4 >= 3.10)).
