The current build procedure is pretty far away from CI/CD, though, and the current Configuration file is more akin to a conventional config script. Considering the Configuration file's role, I think publishing the info with the release is the better option.

I'm trying to propose ci-cd approach here: 'ci-cd' definition file would be used to build WeiDU so when the new release is created, the information regarding the OCaml version used to compile could be included automatically. But manually adding this info to the release is also sufficient.

The configuration file is not an appropriate place for this information, as it is largely system-agnostic. As the string you posted shows, this information is typically included as metadata to the build artifact (for instance: weidu+4.07.1.exe). However, I'm not sure this information is interesting for the vast majority of people, so maybe I should just included it in the information provided for each release?

Hi wisp,


can you please document the OCaml version and variant ( '4.07.0+default-unsafe-string+mingw32') used to build WeiDU? The preferred way would be to include this inside the configuration file. Making sure that the actual build system uses such configuration is another story but documentation would be the first step.


This would be helpful when someone wants to recreate specific WeiDU version and keep compiling the environment as much consistent as possible.
