<jao> scipient: i have not (yet) programmed a lot with ocaml, but i do extensive unit testing in other languages using the xunit framework. in ocaml there is fort...
<scipient> i have used junit with java
<jao> me too, and like it very much
<jao> a question about exceptions: in chailloux et al's book, they're used sometimes as a control-flow mechanism rather than as an error-handling device. this usage is often discouraged in other languages: what do you guys think?
<malc> its acceptable
<malc> though if you can avoid it
<malc> there was a discussion on ML about it some time ago (gee.. i must hardwire this sentence somewhere)
<jao> agreed: i'd rather avoid it... i'd expect it is a rather expensive control flow mechanism, even in ocaml...
* jao #ocaml is searching the ML archives
<malc> its not overly expensive in ocaml
<malc> search for OCaml beaten by Java
<malc> by Mattias Blume iirc
<jao> thanks!
<malc> n/p
