OCamlSDL2 is an OCaml interface to the SDL2 library.
If you are searching for OCaml bindings for SDL 1.2 then you should go there instead: ocamlsdl.sf.net
This version of the bindings is known to work with SDL 2.0.9 or 2.0.10 and OCaml 4.07.1 until 4.13.1
Read the file "INSTALL.txt" for instructions about how to compile and install.
You can install ocamlsdl2 with opam.
If you installed SDL2 version 2.0.9 or later you can install the last version:
$ opam install ocamlsdl2
But if you still use an older version of SDL2 like for example SDL2 version 2.0.6 then you should install a previous version of the bindings:
$ opam install ocamlsdl2.0.02
To know which version of the SDL2 is on your system, you can use the command:
$ sdl2-config --version
To install the source directory (tarball release or git clone):
$ opam install .
The API documentation can be browsed online:
