The new release rebinds *TRANSFORMATIONS* and thus should hopefully fix this issue. Thanks for the report, Edi. _______________________________________________ cl-gd-announce mailing list cl-gd-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cl-gd-announce

[ann] [pal-announce] Version 1.0
by Tomi Neste 28 Jul '07

28 Jul '07

Pixel Art Library v1.0 is now released. If you were using the CVS head there shouldn't be much suprises, for those still using Release 3 see the changes.txt. Enjoy, and let me know when you find the bugs. This time I was more careful in hiding them... -- tomppa _______________________________________________ pal-announce mailing list pal-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pal-announce

The patch contained TAB characters and wrong links amongst other things, so I had to go through it manually anyway. That's why it took me a while. Here's the new release.

[ann] [misc-extensions-announce] Misc-Extensions 1.1 released
by Scott L. Burson 15 Jul '07

15 Jul '07

I have released version 1.1 of Misc-Extensions. It includes version 3.3 of GMap, which contains the following changes: () Revamped arg types `:index' and `:index-inc' (incompatibly). () Added doc strings, including on the predefined arg- and result-types, and arranged for them to be placed on the symbol-plist, where there's an outside chance someone might find them. () Revamped result types `:vector' and `:string' (incompatibly). () Removed deprecated arg- and result-types `:array'. () Changed most optional arguments to arg- and result-types to keyword arguments. () Substantially expanded the multiple-value capability. Now it is possible for an arg-spec to generate any number of arguments to the function being mapped, and for a single result-spec to consume more than one value returned by that function. () Using the new multiple-value capabilities, added `:alist' and `:plist' as both arg- and result-types. Thanks to Joerg Hoehle for some useful suggestions. -- Scott _______________________________________________ misc-extensions-announce mailing list misc-extensions-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/misc-extensions-announce

[ann] [cl-cairo2-announce] minor update to cl-cairo2
by Tamas K Papp 12 Jul '07

12 Jul '07

Hi everyone, I uploaded a minor update to cl-cairo2 today. Highlights: - the wrapper classes now use finalizers: this means that if you fail to explicitly destroy them, the GC should take care of it. However, files will not be closed until this happens, so don't rely on this, it is just a feature that helps if the user forgets to destroy the object explicitly (please use the latest CFFI if you encounter errors, earlier versions don't have cffi:finalize & co) - minor fixes, mostly cosmetic, now the library compiles under ultra-picky SBCL without warnings I have a bit of time now to work on cl-cairo2, so please tell me if there are any features you are missing. Best, Tamas _______________________________________________ cl-cairo2-announce mailing list cl-cairo2-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cl-cairo2-announce

[ann] [graphic-forms-announce] graphic-forms-newtypes branch now obsolete
by Jack Unrue 07 Jul '07

07 Jul '07

I have merged the graphic-forms-newtypes branch back into mainline, and thus that branch is obsolete. Now that the CFFI project has merged their newtypes branch[1], it's no longer necessary for us to differentiate between the two flavors -- so we are back to using the mainline CFFI code. The latest CFFI from darcs works for me; please send problem reports to graphic-forms-devel if you encounter problems. -- Jack Unrue [1] The closest to an official statement on the branch status in CFFI that I could find is: http://common-lisp.net/pipermail/cl-opengl-devel/2007-June/000117.html _______________________________________________ graphic-forms-announce mailing list graphic-forms-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/graphic-forms-announce

[ann] [pal-announce] Release 3
by Tomi Neste 03 Jul '07

03 Jul '07

Release 3 of PAL is now available at http://common-lisp.net/project/pal - some minor & major bugfixes. Most importantly it _should_ now work on SBCL, CLisp, Allegro CL and Lispworks :) - bitmap loading should be a lot faster - few changes in the API, check changes.txt - some draft documentation is available on the website, not much yet though Tomi Neste _______________________________________________ pal-announce mailing list pal-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pal-announce
