+=head1 NAME
+
+guestfs-ocaml - How to use libguestfs from OCaml
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+Module style:
+
+ let g = Guestfs.create () in
+ Guestfs.add_drive_opts g ~format:"raw" ~readonly:true "disk.img";
+ Guestfs.launch g;
+
+Object-oriented style:
+
+ let g = new Guestfs.guestfs () in
+ g#add_drive_opts ~format:"raw" ~readonly:true "disk.img";
+ g#launch ();
+
+ ocamlfind opt prog.ml -package guestfs -linkpkg -o prog
+or:
+ ocamlopt -I +guestfs mlguestfs.cmxa prog.ml -o prog
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This manual page documents how to call libguestfs from the OCaml
+programming language. This page just documents the differences from
+the C API and gives some examples. If you are not familiar with using
+libguestfs, you also need to read L<guestfs(3)>.
+
+=head2 PROGRAMMING STYLES
+
+There are two different programming styles supported by the OCaml
+bindings. You can use a module style, with each C function mapped to
+an OCaml function:
+
+ int guestfs_set_verbose (guestfs_h *g, int flag);
+
+becomes:
+
+ val Guestfs.set_verbose : Guestfs.t -> bool -> unit
+
+Alternately you can use an object-oriented style, calling methods
+on the class C<Guestfs.guestfs>:
+
+ method set_verbose : bool -> unit
+
+The object-oriented style is usually briefer, and the minor performance
+penalty isn't noticable in the general overhead of performing
+libguestfs functions.
+
+=head2 CLOSING THE HANDLE
+
+The handle is closed when it is reaped by the garbage collector.
+Because libguestfs handles include a lot of state, it is also
+possible to close (and hence free) them explicitly by calling
+C<Guestfs.close> or the C<#close> method.
+
+=head2 EXCEPTIONS
+
+Errors from libguestfs functions are mapped into the C<Guestfs.Error>
+exception. This has a single parameter which is the error message (a
+string).
+
+Calling any function/method on a closed handle raises
+C<Guestfs.Handle_closed>. The single parameter is the name of the
+function that you called.
