Compatibility module for the OCaml standard library
Description
Stdcompat is a compatibility layer allowing programs to use some recent
additions to the OCaml standard library while preserving the ability to
be compiled on former versions of OCaml.
The Stdcompat API is not intended to be stable, but there will be
efforts to allow future versions of Stdcompat to be compiled on a large
range of versions of OCaml: Stdcompat should compile (at least) on every
version of OCaml from 3.08 (inclusive).
The module Stdcompat provides some definitions for values and types
introduced in recent versions of the standard library. These
definitions are just aliases to the matching definition of the standard
library if the latter is recent enough. Otherwise, the module Stdcompat
provides an alternative implementation.
