The <a class="external" href="http://www.smlnj.org/doc/ckit"><img src="moin-www.png" alt="[WWW]" height="11" width="11">ckit Library</a> is a C front end written in SML that translates C source code (after preprocessing) into abstract syntax represented as a set of SML datatypes. The ckit Library is distributed with SML/NJ. Due to differences between SML/NJ and MLton, this library will not work out-of-the box with MLton. <p>
As of 20100402, MLton includes a port of the ckit Library synchronized with SML/NJ version 110.72.
</p>
<h2 id="head-0bb18642b70b9f8a9c12ccf39487328f306b8e19">Usage</h2>
<ul>
<li>
<p>
You can import the ckit Library into an MLB file with:
<div>
<table>
<tr>
<td align="center">
MLB file</td>
<td align="center">
Description</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>
<tt>$(SML_LIB)/ckit-lib/ckit-lib.mlb</tt></td>
<td>
</td>
</tr>
</p>
</table>
</div>
</li>
<li class="gap">
<p>
If you are porting a project from SML/NJ's <a href="CompilationManager">CompilationManager</a> to MLton's <a href="MLBasis"> ML Basis system</a> using <tt>cm2mlb</tt>, note that the following map is included by default:
<pre>$ckit-lib.cm/ckit-lib.cm $(SML_LIB)/ckit-lib/ckit-lib.mlb
</pre> This will automatically convert a <tt>$/ckit-lib.cm</tt> import in an input <tt>.cm</tt> file into a <tt>$(SML_LIB)/ckit-lib/ckit-lib.mlb</tt> import in the output <tt>.mlb</tt> file.
</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h2 id="head-dc3decbb93847518f1a049dcf49d0d7c6560bcc6">Details</h2>
<p>
The following changes were made to the ckit Library, in addition to deriving the <tt>.mlb</tt> file from the <tt>.cm</tt> files:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>
<tt>parser/parse-tree-sig.sml</tt> (modified): Rewrote use of (sequential) <tt>withtype</tt> in signature.
