Ladies and Gentlemen,
Is there an elegant way to have ABCL load Lisp code from a JAR file in the Java CLASSPATH?
I'm helping build an application to run under ABCL and I'd like to take all the code and roll it up into a JAR file in the CLASSPATH when I start the interpreter. If possible I'd then like to have ABCL find the file as though it were in the current directory. I know that ABLC is finding its system files in abcl.jar and I can load Lisp code from a local JAR file, but I haven't figured out how to put the two together and load Lisp elegantly from a JAR file in the CLASSPATH. I can do it inelegantly by getting the CLASSPATH from the Java System class, inspecting all its JAR files, then loading the right ones manually, but that seems awkward for a customer application.
I'd appreciate any pointers.
Finally, please let me apologize in advance if there's some simple answer that I should have found but haven't.
Peter
