[ann] [objective-cl-announce] Objective-CL 0.2.2
by Matthias Benkard 23 Mar '08

23 Mar '08

Hi all, I have released Objective-CL 0.2.2. It's primarily a bug fix release. * Quick Summary No dependency on Darcs versions of CFFI. CMUCL can be used again. AMD64 compilation problems have been fixed. Moderate speed improvements for method invocation. * What's New? ** CFFI 0.9.2 Support Objective-CL has always included support code for different CFFI versions, but the support for anything older than a more or less recent Darcs checkout turned out be broken. This release fixes the brokenness, so release versions of CFFI should actually be supported now. ** CMUCL Compatibility As CMUCL does not support closures as funcallable-instance-functions, a workaround had to be implemented. This has been accomplished by compiling a new lambda expression every time a selector is initialised. This, of course, makes (COLLECT-SELECTORS) slower than on other implementations and probably wastes a certain amount of memory, but it works. ** Speed Improvements Method invocation speed has been improved a bit. See the development diary (file JOURNAL) for details. ** AMD64 Compatibility The Objective-C support code from PyObjC used to assume that ssize_t and int are equivalent. One search-and-replace procedure later, Objective-CL compiles on AMD64 GNUstep machines. This new support has not been extensively tested, so it may still be broken in some way or another. Furthermore, a similar procedure has not been applied to the Apple-specific pieces of the PyObjC support code yet Bug reports are welcome. Have fun! ~ Matthias _______________________________________________ objective-cl-announce mailing list objective-cl-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/objective-cl-announce

by Jones, Eric SPC MIL USA FORSCOM 23 Mar '08

I understand that Elephant is used for caching of C code. Perhaps this functionality could be ported to Allegrocache. _______________________________________________ cinline-announce mailing list cinline-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cinline-announce

[ann] [movitz-announce] Macros in Movitz run-time, etc.
by Frode Vatvedt Fjeld 21 Mar '08

21 Mar '08

The following message is a courtesy copy of an article that has been posted to gmane.lisp.movitz.devel as well. I'd just like to mention that I've recently added macros to the movitz run-time (and eval). That is, macros in general should work as you expect at the REPL, and the "macro-function" and "macroexpand" functions should work according to spec. Notable macros that work are do, dotimes, dolist, and destructuring-bind. Notable not-working-yet macros are loop, defclass, and defmethod (i.e. macros that require extensive machinery beyond the syntax layer). The macro-expanders are compiled (at create-image time, like normal functions). This increases the time and output size of create-image somewhat, but the default kernel still clocks in well below the size of a floppy image (1.44 MB). Furthermmore, a number of special operators have been added/improved in the run-time eval. I expect eval to be reasonably complete soonish. Finally, the compiling of macros triggered a few compiler bugs that have now been weeded out (also increasing compiler speed). -- Frode Vatvedt Fjeld _______________________________________________ movitz-announce site list movitz-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/mailman/listinfo/movitz-announce

The document "Sub-interval Numerical Types for Common Lisp" has been revised by its author Marco Antoniotti. It has also changed its name - the previous name was "Extra Numerical Types for Common Lisp". This document is still in its initial stage and will be finalized on April 9, 2008, unless withdrawn by the author beforehand. See http://cdr.eurolisp.org/document/5/ for more details.

[ann] [closer-announce] Article about COP in JOT
by Pascal Costanza 08 Mar '08

08 Mar '08

Hi everybody, There is a new article about Context-oriented Programming in the Journal of Object Technology, and it can be viewed and downloaded at http://www.jot.fm/issues/issue_2008_03/article4/ It discusses context-oriented extensions for Common Lisp, Smalltalk and Java, namely ContextL, ContextS and ContextJ. There is a new ContextL example presented in this article that we haven't discussed in any of the previous papers, so it should be an interesting read for ContextL users as well. As always, please feel free to send feedback and suggestions. Best, Pascal -- 1st European Lisp Symposium (ELS'08) http://prog.vub.ac.be/~pcostanza/els08/ Pascal Costanza, mailto:pc@p-cos.net, http://p-cos.net Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Programming Technology Lab Pleinlaan 2, B-1050 Brussel, Belgium _______________________________________________ closer-announce mailing list closer-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/closer-announce
