Module Aux

module Aux: sig .. end

Auxiliary functions for general use.

val with_file_out_channel : string -> (Pervasives.out_channel -> unit) -> unit

with_file_out_channel path writer tries to open a new out_channel for writing to the file at path. It then applies writer to the resulting out_channel. Finally, it closes the out_channel, even if an exception was raised.

Note: The file will be truncated if it already exists.

val with_buffer : int -> (Buffer.t -> unit) -> string

with_buffer size writer creates a new Buffer.t with space for at least size characters. It then applies writer to the resulting buffer, and returns the contents of it.

The idea is to be able to reuse the buffer by partial application.

val (|>>) : 'a -> ('a -> 'b) -> 'b

Pipeline operator (apply function to previous result)
