This PR adds an
--std-path
argument to set standard library path as an alternative to setting theHAXE_STD_PATH
environment variable.This is useful to be able to use Haxe from the ninja build system, as it does not support setting environment variables from its build scripts: ninja-build/ninja#1002
I have also read that I might need to set
HAXELIB_PATH
andHAXEPATH
to get haxelib working. I quickly checked the source code and the compiler does seem to invokehaxelib
in some places, so would it be acceptable to add more flags for those paths? Or is there a better mechanism that could be used as an alternative?Also this is my first using OCaml and hacking on the compiler to let me know of any issues with the code.
