To obtain access to the latest GCC, load the environment module ``ocaml/latest``:

Build recipe
------------

We compiled the OCaml code using :doc:`gcc`. The recipe used to guide the compilation process is available online at:

https://gitlab.discoverer.bg/vkolev/recipes/-/tree/main/ocaml

You will find the testing of the built binaries within the log file. It is noteworthy to mention that the following capabilities were enabled during the compilation of OCaml's code:

.. code:: bash

   --enable-flambda \
   --enable-flambda-invariants \
   --enable-cmm-invariants \
   --enable-flat-float-array
