[ann] [mcclim-announce] (corrected) Announcing McCLIM 0.9.3 "All Souls' Day"
by McCLIM developers 02 Nov '06

02 Nov '06

The McCLIM developers are happy to release version 0.9.3 of McCLIM, code-named "All Saints' Day". This release was tested and found to work on the following implementations: * SBCL * OpenMCL * Allegro Common Lisp 8.0 in ANSI Mode * The Scieneer Common Lisp in ANSI Mode For compatibility with other implementations, please see the attached release notes. Get the tarball at <http://common-lisp.net/project/mcclim/downloads/mcclim-0.9.3.tar.gz> or install McCLIM via asdf-install. We are looking forward to your comments and bug reports. Please send them to mcclim-devel at common-lisp.net. The list of currently known bugs can be found at <http://mcclim.cliki.net/Bug>. Have fun using McCLIM (and build good things with it), The McCLIM developers. RELEASE NOTES FOR McCLIM 0.9.3, "All Souls' Day": Compatibility ============= This release was tested and found to work on the following implementations: * SBCL * OpenMCL * Allegro Common Lisp 8.0 in ANSI Mode * The Scieneer Common Lisp in ANSI Mode In our tests, this release of McCLIM did not work on the following implementations: * CLISP (there are some problems with CLISP at the moment, but it is possible to run McCLIM there; a HOWTO will be posted to http://planet.lisp.org) * CMUCL (at the time of this release, the released CMUCL has a bug that prevents successful loading of McCLIM; CMUCL 19d + patch 1 and the 2006-12 snapshot or later contain a fix for this problem) * LispWorks (no known workaround) Also, McCLIM currently does not support lisps with case-sensitive readers (ACL "modern mode" and lower-case SCL). Changes in mcclim-0.9.3 "All Souls' Day" relative to 0.9.2: =========================================================== From the NEWS file: * backend improvement: The Null backend now registers itself in the server search path * improvement: with-output-as-gadget now sets the correct cursor position when incremental redisplay is active. * specification compliance: INVOKE-WITH-NEW-OUTPUT-RECORD's argument list now is the same as the one in the Franz CLIM user guide. * improvement: The text field cursor is now a solid block again. * backend improvement: the PostScript backend now outputs correct EPS * improvement: Graph nodes can now be dragged * improvement: Possibilities when reading from COMPLETE-FROM-GENERATOR are now sorted alphabetically. * new experimental backend: gtkairo (loads on SBCL, CMUCL and SCL): Uses GTK+ for gadgets and cairo for rendering graphics. * Bug fix: incremental-redisplay does no longer leak memory * improvement: incremental-redisplay is now a little faster * Bug fix: Invisible text cursors no longer leave a dangling space behind the text output record * improvement: commands whose names are shadowed in child command tables are now suggested in preference to their parents. * Bug fix: (setf stream-cursor-position) and output record replay on encapsulating streams work now. * Bug fix: Invoking command menu items in frames with no interactor works now. * Bug fix: DESTROY-PORT removes the port even if an error occurs while closing the port * Bug fix: make-process now sets the process name on SBCL * specification compliance: MENU-CHOOSE now supports almost all features demanded in the CLIM 2.0 specification. * improvement: new and improved ACCEPT presentation method for expressions on interactive streams. * specification compliance: LOOKUP-KEYSTROKE-ITEM no longer accepts the :errorp argument. * Bug fix: incremental redisplay no longer breaks on output records that had no children. * Bug fix: arrow head sizes are now transformed along with the line thickness. * improvement: resizing a viewport's child will now move the viewport's focus. * improvement: loading mcclim.asd no longer shows a code deletion note on SBCL. * new demo: logic-cube * compatibility: Add support for post-1.0 openmcl, and for Allegro Common Lisp 8.0 (ansi mode). * new example application showing use of CLIM views. _______________________________________________ mcclim-announce mailing list mcclim-announce(a)common-lisp.net http://common-lisp.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mcclim-announce

Thanks for the report. It seems CLISP again needs special treatment here. Please try with the new Chunga release.

As originally discussed with Ingvar, I have now made the reference implementation part of the CDR page itself. (This means if there will be changes to the reference implementation, we will have to update the one on the CDR page as well. We won't do this automatically, but need to be informed about this...)
