These functions are useful to, say, locate a FORTRAN compiler and querying it to locate where libgfortran resides (when needed).

The API in configurator isn't bad, but I'd prefer to export an API that is more similar to dune's. The addition of find_in_path is fine, but I think which is the better name.

@rgrinberg Fine with me — I will also rename the functions inside the module.

@rgrinberg Anything else?

The which addition I accept but I'm not loving this Pgm interface:

  • Pgm isn't a very suggestive name
  • There's no support for environment variables
  • The command has to be provided as a string rather than providing the exe/arguments separately

Overall, there's a few lessons that we can learn from dune's own Process module that we should incorporate before making something available for the user.

Thanks for your remarks. I'll make broader changes to this module as soon as I get a bit more free time.

If you remove the Pgm stuff, we can just merge the addition of which. Feel free to make the other changes at your pace.

CHANGES:

- Second step of the deprecation of jbuilder: the `jbuilder` binary
  now emits a warning on every startup and both `jbuilder` and `dune`
  emit warnings when encountering `jbuild` files (ocaml/dune#1752, @diml)

- Change the layout of build artifacts inside _build. The new layout enables
  optimizations that depend on the presence of `.cmx` files of private modules
  (ocaml/dune#1676, @bobot)

- Fix merlin handling of private module visibility (ocaml/dune#1653 @bobot)

- unstable-fmt: use boxes to wrap some lists (ocaml/dune#1608, fix ocaml/dune#1153, @emillon,
  thanks to @rgrinberg)

- skip directories when looking up programs in the PATH (ocaml/dune#1628, fixes
  ocaml/dune#1616, @diml)

- Use `lsof` on macOS to implement `--stats` (ocaml/dune#1636, fixes ocaml/dune#1634, @xclerc)

- Generate `dune-package` files for every package. These files are installed and
  read instead of `META` files whenever they are available (ocaml/dune#1329, @rgrinberg)

- Fix preprocessing for libraries with `(include_subdirs ..)` (ocaml/dune#1624, fix ocaml/dune#1626,
  @nojb, @rgrinberg)

- Do not generate targets for archive that don't match the `modes` field.
  (ocaml/dune#1632, fix ocaml/dune#1617, @rgrinberg)

- When executing actions, open files lazily and close them as soon as
  possible in order to reduce the maximum number of file descriptors
  opened by Dune (ocaml/dune#1635, ocaml/dune#1643, fixes ocaml/dune#1633, @jonludlam, @rgrinberg,
  @diml)

- Reimplement the core of Dune using a new generic memoization system
  (ocaml/dune#1489, @rudihorn, @diml)

- Replace the broken cycle detection algorithm by a state of the art
  one from [this paper](https://doi.org/10.1145/2756553) (ocaml/dune#1489,
  @rudihorn)

- Get the correct environment node for multi project workspaces (ocaml/dune#1648,
  @rgrinberg)

- Add `dune compute` to call internal memoized functions (ocaml/dune#1528,
  @rudihorn, @diml)

- Add `--trace-file` option to trace dune internals (ocaml/dune#1639, fix ocaml/dune#1180, @emillon)

- Add `--no-print-directory` (borrowed from GNU make) to suppress
  `Entering directory` messages. (ocaml/dune#1668, @dra27)

- Remove `--stats` and track fd usage in `--trace-file` (ocaml/dune#1667, @emillon)

- Add virtual libraries feature and enable it by default (ocaml/dune#1430 fixes ocaml/dune#921,
  @rgrinberg)

- Fix handling of Control+C in watch mode (ocaml/dune#1678, fixes ocaml/dune#1671, @diml)

- Look for jsoo runtime in the same dir as the `js_of_ocaml` binary
  when the ocamlfind package is not available (ocaml/dune#1467, @nojb)

- Make the `seq` package available for OCaml >= 4.07 (ocaml/dune#1714, @rgrinberg)

- Add locations to error messages where a rule fails to generate targets and
  rules that require files outside the build/source directory. (ocaml/dune#1708, fixes
  ocaml/dune#848, @rgrinberg)

- Let `Configurator` handle `sizeof` (in addition to negative numbers).
  (ocaml/dune#1726, fixes ocaml/dune#1723, @Chris00)

- Fix an issue causing menhir generated parsers to fail to build in
  some cases. The fix is to systematically use `-short-paths` when
  calling `ocamlc -i` (ocaml/dune#1743, fix ocaml/dune#1504, @diml)

- Never raise when printing located errors. The code that would print the
  location excerpts was prone to raising. (ocaml/dune#1744, fix ocaml/dune#1736, @rgrinberg)

- Add a `dune upgrade` command for upgrading jbuilder projects to Dune
  (ocaml/dune#1749, @diml)

- When automatically creating a `dune-project` file, insert the
  detected name in it (ocaml/dune#1749, @diml)

- Add `(implicit_transitive_deps <bool>)` mode to dune projects. When this mode
  is turned off, transitive dependencies are not accessible. Only listed
  dependencies are directly accessible. (ocaml/dune#1734, ocaml/dune#430, @rgrinberg, @hnrgrgr)

- Add `toplevel` stanza. This stanza is used to define toplevels with libraries
  already preloaded. (ocaml/dune#1713, @rgrinberg)

- Generate `.merlin` files that account for normal preprocessors defined using a
  subset of the `action` language. (ocaml/dune#1768, @rgrinberg)

- Emit `(orig_src_dir <path>)` metadata in `dune-package` for dune packages
  built with `--store-orig-source-dir` command line flag (also controlled by
  `DUNE_STORE_ORIG_SOURCE_DIR` env variable). This is later used to generate
  `.merlin` with `S`-directives pointed to original source locations and thus
  allowing merlin to see those. (ocaml/dune#1750, @andreypopp)

- Improve the behavior of `dune promote` when the files to be promoted have been
  deleted. (ocaml/dune#1775, fixes ocaml/dune#1772, @diml)

- unstable-fmt: preserve comments (ocaml/dune#1766, @emillon)

- Pass flags correctly when using `staged_pps` (ocaml/dune#1779, fixes ocaml/dune#1774, @diml)

- Fix an issue with the use of `(mode promote)` in the menhir
  stanza. It was previously causing intermediate *mock* files to be
  promoted (ocaml/dune#1783, fixes ocaml/dune#1781, @diml)

- unstable-fmt: ignore files using OCaml syntax (ocaml/dune#1784, @emillon)

- Configurator: Add `which` function to replace the `which` command line utility
  in a cross platform way. (ocaml/dune#1773, fixes ocaml/dune#1705, @Chris00)

- Make configurator append paths to `$PKG_CONFIG_PATH` on macOS. Previously it
  was prepending paths and thus `$PKG_CONFIG_PATH` set by users could have been
  overridden by homebrew installed libraries (ocaml/dune#1785, @andreypopp)

- Disallow c/cxx sources that share an object file in the same stubs archive.
  This means that `foo.c` and `foo.cpp` can no longer exist in the same library.
  (ocaml/dune#1788, @rgrinberg)

- Forbid use of `%{targets}` (or `${@}` in jbuild files) inside
  preprocessing actions
  (ocaml/dune#1812, fixes ocaml/dune#1811, @diml)

- Add `DUNE_PROFILE` environment variable to easily set the profile. (ocaml/dune#1806,
  @rgrinberg)

- Deprecate the undocumented `(no_keep_locs)` field. It was only
  necessary until virtual libraries were supported (ocaml/dune#1822, fix ocaml/dune#1816,
  @diml)

- Rename `unstable-fmt` to `format-dune-file` and remove its `--inplace` option.
  (ocaml/dune#1821, @emillon).

- Autoformatting: `(using fmt 1.1)` will also format dune files (ocaml/dune#1821, @emillon).

- Autoformatting: record dependencies on `.ocamlformat-ignore` files (ocaml/dune#1824,
  fixes ocaml/dune#1793, @emillon)
