This year, for the first time, the Functional Programming Workshops were held in Paris, on Inria's, the French National Computer Science Research Institute, campus along with a watch party for the ICFP conference at Indianapolis. As each year we attended the OCaml Workshop to see the latest advances...
Welcome to a new episode of The Flambda2 Snippets! Today's topic is Loopify, one of Flambda2's many optimisation algorithms which specifically deals with optimising both purely tail-recursive and/or functions annotated with the [@@loop] attribute in OCaml. A lazy explanation for its utility would be...
Uncaught exception: Not_found This blog post probably won't teach anything new to OCaml veterans; but for the others, you might be glad to learn that this very basic, yet surprisingly little-known feature of OCaml will give you backtraces with source file positions on any uncaught exception. Since i...
In this first post of the Flambda2 Snippets, we dive into the powerful CPS-based internal representation used within the Flambda2 optimizer, which was one of the main motivation to move on from the former Flambda optimizer. Credit goes to Andrew Kennedy's paper Compiling with Continuations, Continue...

At OCamlPro, the main ongoing task on the OCaml Compiler is to improve the high-level optimisation. This is something that we have been doing for quite some time now. Indeed, we are the authors behind the Flambda optimisation pass and today we would like to introduce the series of blog snippets show...

In some discussions among OCaml developers around the empty type (PR#9459), some people mused about the possibility of annotating functions with an attribute telling the compiler that the function should be trivial, and always return a value strictly equivalent to its argument.Curious about the feas...
Au cours de discussions parmi les développeurs OCaml sur le type vide (PR#9459), certains caressaient l’idée d’annoter des fonctions avec un attribut indiquant au compilateur que la fonction devrait être triviale, et toujours renvoyer une valeur strictement équivalente à son argument. Nous ...
