Is there any way to install ocaml-ctypes without OPAM which does'nt compile on Windows ?
Is it possible to just compile ocaml-ctypes with ocamlbuild ?
I would like to compile and try ocaml-ctypes on windows with ocaml/mingw : I'm using in cygwin the mingw cross-compiler (i686-w64-mingw32-gcc).

It ought to be possible to build ocaml-ctypes (either the 0.1 release or the current master HEAD) on Windows. The dependencies are: libffi, Oasis, OCamlfind and (optionally) OUnit. Although ctypes hasn't yet been tested on Windows, build/test failures should generally be considered bugs, so please let us know how you get on.

The dependency on Oasis should disappear at some point (issue #21).

Great! libffi compiles fine with Mingw, Ocamlfind also. So removing the dependency with Oasis should solve the issue.

The build-time dependency on Oasis has now been removed (issue #45).
