Just to follow up on this. I implemented this by packing all my files into a randomly-named module. ie. My files are compiled using the -pack/-for-pack options as submodules of 'Jobs__<time>' where <time> is the current time_t. The top (randomly named) module is then loaded. This works fine in both bytecode and native code. The code is here: http://git.annexia.org/?p=whenjobs.git;a=commitdiff;h=de72662854c3db9365296dd45cade2253910be7f Rich. -- Richard Jones Red Hat -- Caml-list mailing list.
