[armedbear-devel] ASDF: Cannot handle the special form EXTENSIONS:TRULY-THE
by Blake McBride 24 Mar '13

24 Mar '13

Greetings, Trying to load a package with ASDF I ran into the following error: ASDF could not load because Cannot (currently) handle the special form EXTENSIONS:TRULY-THE. #<THREAD "interpreter" {4BC78066}>: Debugger invoked on condition of type SIMPLE-ERROR Cannot (currently) handle the special form TRULY-THE Restarts: ... I traced the problem to ASDF and not the package I was attempting to load. Does anyone know anything about this? (I am running the latest SVN head of ABCL) Thanks. Blake McBride

[armedbear-devel] abcl-1.1.0 release status
by Mark Evenson 07 Dec '12

07 Dec '12

Overall, I think we are more-or-less ready to release the long awaited abcl-1.1.0 with the exception of resolving the outstanding ANSI regression failures. I have moved all previously outstanding issues to the abcl-1.1.1 milestone, and I have added as three blocker tickets to the abcl-1.1.0 milestone to decide on what to do. http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/265 http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/266 http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/267 For each of these issues, I have identified the changeset that caused the regression via bisecting the source tree. If the result of the bisection is correct, all three issues should be relatively easy to track down, as "not much happened" in the commits. But maybe something was screwy in my process (I did it "on the road" from an iPad ssh client last week in a non-traditional--for me--working environment). Additionally, we should probably check the Novemeber Quicklisp test reports to see if anything has been broken. I seem to see a problem with Hunchentoot under SLIME regarding the PATHNAME reader, but this may be something local to me. I need to finish writing up the CHANGES, and make a quick pass through the manual, updating the grovelled docstring sections. Hopefully, we can have a quick consultation on #abcl tonight at 2100 CST to see if these plans make sense. -- "A screaming comes across the sky. It has happened before but there is nothing to compare to it now."

[armedbear-devel] Unix domain sockets for abcl
by Rudolf Schlatte 26 Nov '12

26 Nov '12

Hi, I'm having a go at getting clx to run on abcl. Seems the jvm doesn't support unix domain sockets out-of-the-box and we need a library like junixsocket (http://code.google.com/p/junixsocket/) or juds (https://github.com/mcfunley/juds) to avoid connecting to localhost:6000 over IP where the X server might not be listening depending on how it's configured. What's the best way to proceed? (I'm a bit jetlagged or I could maybe answer this one myself..) Rudi

[armedbear-devel] Mobile ports of ABCL?
by Andrew Pennebaker 24 Nov '12

24 Nov '12

Any interest in porting ABCL to Android, iPhone, and Windows Phone? Even just a basic REPL would be really useful for Lispers. -- Cheers, Andrew Pennebaker www.yellosoft.us

[armedbear-devel] Issue finding methods in JSS
by Jonathan P. Bona 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hello, We found this issue while working with LSW. It seems to be a bug in how public methods are found for inner classes. The last line of code below results in an exception rather than finding and running the size() method: ;;;---------------- (require :abcl-contrib) (require :jss) (jss::ensure-compatibility) (setq headers (#"getHeaderFields" (#"openConnection" (jss::new 'java.net.url "http://google.com")))) ; a java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableRandomAccessList (setq ural (#"get" headers (second (jss::set-to-list (#"keySet" headers))))) ;finds: #<method public int java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableCollection.size()> (find "size" (#"getMethods" (#"getClass" ural) ) :test 'string-equal :key #"getName") ; Java exception 'java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: No applicable method named size found in java.lang.Object or java.util.Collections$UnmodifiableRandomAccessList'. (#"size" ural) ;;;---------------- I chased this into org.armedbear.lisp.Java, where findMethod is returning null. - Jonathan Bona

[armedbear-devel] cffi requires maven
by Anton Vodonosov 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

Hello. In ABCL CFFI requires maven. Maven is used to fetch jna.jar. This is done via abcl-contrib.jar/mvn/jna.asd What I think is inconvenient is that maven is tried even if jna.jar is in classpath. IMHO it would be to not require maven installed if JNA is available. The current workaround is (provide 'jna). With that I can do: (java:add-to-classpath "my-jna/jna.jar") (provide 'jna) (ql:quickload :drakma) BTW, I think it's probably makes sense to ship jna.jar together with official ABCL release. Best regards, - Anton
