MLton runs on a variety of platforms and is distributed in both source and binary form. The format for the binary package depends on the platform. The binary package will install under <tt>/usr</tt> or <tt>/usr/local</tt>, depending on the platform. A <tt>.tgz</tt> or <tt>.tbz</tt> binary package should be extracted in the root directory. If you install MLton somewhere else, you must set the <tt>lib</tt> variable in the <tt>/usr/bin/mlton</tt> script to the directory that contains the libraries (<tt>/usr/lib/mlton</tt> by default). <p>
MLton requires that you have the <a class="external" href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gmp/gmp.html"><img src="moin-www.png" alt="[WWW]" height="11" width="11">GNU multiprecision library</a> installed on your machine. MLton must be able to find both the <tt>gmp.h</tt> include file and the <tt>libgmp.a</tt> or <tt>libgmp.so</tt> library. If you see the error message <tt>gmp.h: No such file or directory</tt>, you should copy <tt>gmp.h</tt> to <tt>/usr/lib/mlton/self/include</tt>. If you see the error message <tt>/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgmp</tt>, you should add a <tt>-link-opt -L</tt> argument in the <tt>/usr/bin/mlton</tt> script so that the linker can find <tt>libgmp</tt>. If, for example, <tt>libgmp.a</tt> is in <tt>/tmp</tt>, then add <tt>-link-opt -L/tmp</tt>.
</p>
<p>
Installation of MLton creates the following files and directories.
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p>
<tt>/usr/bin/mllex</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
The <a class="nonexistent" href="MLLex">MLLex</a> lexer generator.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/bin/mlnlffigen</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
The <a href="MLNLFFI">ML-NLFFI</a> tool.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/bin/mlprof</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
A <a href="Profiling">Profiling</a> tool.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/bin/mlton</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
A script to call the compiler. This script may be moved anywhere, however, it makes use of files in <tt>/usr/lib/mlton</tt>.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/bin/mlyacc</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
The <a class="nonexistent" href="MLYacc">MLYacc</a> parser generator.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/lib/mlton</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
Directory containing libraries and include files needed during compilation.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/share/man/man1/mllex.1</tt>, <tt>mlnlffigen.1</tt>, <tt>mlprof.1</tt>, <tt>mlton.1</tt>, <tt>mlyacc.1</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
Man pages.
</ul>
<li class="gap">
<p>
<tt>/usr/share/doc/mlton</tt>
</p>
</li>
<ul>
Directory containing the user guide for MLton, mllex, and mlyacc, as well as example SML programs (in the <tt>examples</tt> dir), and license information.
</ul>
</ul>
<h2 id="head-0a0a9f2a6772942557ab5355d76af442f8f65e01">Hello, World!</h2>
<p>
Once you have installed MLton, create a file called <tt>hello-world.sml</tt> with the following contents.
</p>
<pre>print "Hello, world!\n";
</pre>Now create an executable, <tt>hello-world</tt>, with the following command.
<pre>mlton hello-world.sml
</pre>You can now run <tt>hello-world</tt> to verify that it works. There are more small examples in <tt>/usr/share/doc/mlton/examples</tt>. <h2 id="head-5a23e19b85078e1861c93e3cc0336d20456af4e0">Installation on Cygwin</h2>
<p>
When installing the Cygwin <tt>tgz</tt>, you should use Cygwin's <tt>bash</tt> and <tt>tar</tt>. The use of an archiving tool that is not aware of Cygwin's mounts will put the files in the wrong place.
