Module Sys
module Sys: sig end
System interface.
val argv : string array
The command line arguments given to the process.
The first element is the command name used to invoke the program.
The following elements are the command-line arguments
given to the program.
val executable_name : string
The name of the file containing the executable currently running.
val file_exists : string -> bool
Test if a file with the given name exists.
val remove : string -> unit
Remove the given file name from the file system.
val rename : string -> string -> unit
Rename a file. The first argument is the old name and the
second is the new name.
val getenv : string -> string
Return the value associated to a variable in the process
environment. Raise Not_found
if the variable is unbound.
val command : string -> int
Execute the given shell command and return its exit code.
val time : unit -> float
Return the processor time, in seconds, used by the program
since the beginning of execution.
val chdir : string -> unit
Change the current working directory of the process.
val getcwd : unit -> string
Return the current working directory of the process.
val interactive : bool Pervasives.ref
This reference is initially set to false
in standalone
programs and to true
if the code is being executed under
the interactive toplevel system ocaml
.
val os_type : string
Operating system currently executing the Caml program. One of
"Unix"
(for all Unix versions, including Linux and Mac OS X),
"Win32"
(for MS-Windows, OCaml compiled with MSVC++),
"Cygwin"
(for MS-Windows, OCaml compiled with Cygwin),
"MacOS"
(for MacOS 9).
val word_size : int
Size of one word on the machine currently executing the Caml
program, in bits: 32 or 64.
val max_string_length : int
Maximum length of a string.
val max_array_length : int
Maximum length of an array.
type signal_behavior =
| |
Signal_default |
| |
Signal_ignore |
| |
Signal_handle of (int -> unit) |
(* | What to do when receiving a signal:
Signal_default : take the default behavior
(usually: abort the program)
Signal_ignore : ignore the signal
Signal_handle f : call function f , giving it the signal
number as argument.
| *) |
val signal : int -> signal_behavior -> signal_behavior
Set the behavior of the system on receipt of a given signal.
The first argument is the signal number. Return the behavior
previously associated with the signal.
val set_signal : int -> signal_behavior -> unit
Signal numbers for the standard POSIX signals.

val sigint : int
Interactive interrupt (ctrl-C)
val sigkill : int
Termination (cannot be ignored)
val sigpipe : int
Broken pipe
val sigquit : int

val sigvtalrm : int
Timeout in virtual time
val sigprof : int
Profiling interrupt
exception Break
val catch_break : bool -> unit
catch_break
governs whether interactive interrupt (ctrl-C)
terminates the program or raises the Break
exception.
Call catch_break true
to enable raising Break
,
and catch_break false
to let the system
terminate the program on user interrupt.
val ocaml_version : string
ocaml_version
is the version of Objective Caml.
It is a string of the form "major.minor[additional-info]"
Where major and minor are integers, and additional-info
is
a string that is empty or starts with a '+'.
