(** Extensible functions.

   This module implements pattern matching extensible functions.
   To extend, use syntax [pa_extfun.cmo]:

      [extfun e with [ pattern_matching ]] *)

type t 'a 'b = 'x;
   (** The type of the extensible functions of type ['a -> 'b] *)
value empty : t 'a 'b;
   (** Empty extensible function *)
value apply : t 'a 'b -> 'a -> 'b;
   (** Apply an extensible function *)
exception Failure;
   (** Match failure while applying an extensible function *)
value print : t 'a 'b -> unit;
   (** Print patterns in the order they are recorded *)
