is there a way to tell ocaml that this record i'm making in { .. } is of type blah? because i have like record fields with the same names across records and it is getting all confused.. is having same names across records a no-no?
<timmy>
i tried { .. }:blah but it doesn't notice it
<malc>
timmy: names inside records have global scope
<malc>
so its impossible to create fields with same names
<smkl>
the record fields have module scope, just like sum-type constructors
<smkl>
people are always confused about how to use records, but never about how to use sums. probably because other languages have records but not sums

smkl: actually masm has(unless some switch used) same semantics
<malc>
but those days one can hardly rely on peoples asm skillz

those = these (or.. sigh)
