Current status of Merlin on Windows #1170
Comments
Just as a datapoint, at LexiFi we use
Cheers, |
It seems that merlin itself (the binary) is working fine on windows, as you've noticed yourself (lsp is based on merlin) and as reported by @nojb. As for how the editor setup and PATH management on windows is supposed to work… I won't be able to help you, and I don't expect @let-def will either. I do wish you luck. |
Thanks everyone! |
I'm working on new content for ocaml.org, on "Getting up and Running with OCaml", which includes editor support. One of our priorities is to make sure that Windows install instructions are treated equally, up to date and correct.
I have successfully got the ocaml-lsp working with Visual Studio Code under Windows, so we have at a least one working system to point Windows users to. However, I have been unable to get merlin + vim working with the recommended OCaml windows distribution:
https://fdopen.github.io/opam-repository-mingw/
(I can install merlin, and run the server, but getting vim to locate it, following the instructions merlin prints upon being installed is failing - I have no problem on OS X or linux).
Before I spend more time on trying to get this combination working so I can recommend it on ocaml.org, can someone confirm that it is currently supposed to work? And also for emacs? Are any of the developers using merlin on Windows? I see that some other issues (#754, #721, #599) are open with regard to Windows support.
Thanks for any pointers you can supply.
