I've installed the 20070826 MinGW version of MLton (statically linked), but when I<br>
Run it from a MSYS bash shell, it immediately dumps core<br>
<br>
$ /c/mingw/bin/mlton<br>
0 [main] bash 4476 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to bash.exe.stackdump<br>
<br>
Is this a known problem? Should I be using a different version of MLton?<br>
</blockquote></div><br>I don't know of anyone who has tried MLton/MinGW on Vista yet. Tom Murphy reported problems using MLton/cygwin on Vista, but I don't know if this was ever resolved. You could >try< a newer MLton, for example the msi installer on <a href="http://mlton.org/Experimental">mlton.org/Experimental</a>, but I doubt it will work either.<br>
<br>I would be happy to look into this for you, as it seems I am currently the MinGW port maintainer. :-) However, as I don't have Vista, it would be very slow going. I would suggest using a non-Vista machine to build a debug version of hello-world (compiled with -g and linked to the -dbg libraries). Then, run that hello world in gdb and report back to us the stack trace.<br>
<br>Or, convince your employers to buy a MLton developer a copy of Vista.<br><br></div>
