RunningOnDarwin - MLton Standard ML Compiler (SML Compiler)

MLton MLTONWIKIVERSION | RunningOnDarwin |
Home Index

MLton runs fine on Darwin (and on Mac OS X).

## Notes

- MLton requires the GnuMP library, which is available via Fink or MacPorts.

- For Intel-based Macs, MLton targets the AMD64 architecture on Darwin 10 (Mac OS X Snow Leopard) and higher and targets the x86 architecture on Darwin 8 (Mac OS X Tiger) and Darwin 9 (Mac OS X Leopard).

## Known issues

- ProfilingTime may give inaccurate results on multi-processor machines. The `SIGPROF` signal, used to sample the profiled program, is supposed to be delivered 100 times a second (i.e., at 10000us intervals), but there can be delays of over 1 minute between the delivery of consecutive `SIGPROF` signals. A more complete description may be found here and here.
