Hi Kevin,
thanks you are willing to help. Please let me now what's happening ;-)
Kind regards, Arie

Hi Arie,
I occasionally produce new builds of J when there is a new version of ABCL. When the ABCL pathname change appeared, I fixed it up so that J would build again, but didn't test much as you have found out. I'd love to get some help with the lisp side of things in J. For example, the slime integration doesn't work and I've disabled the command.
I'll take a look at the path issue in J and see if I can unblock you. Also, for J issues we still use the old sourceforge usershttp://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=armedbear-j-usersand devhttp://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=armedbear-j-develmailing lists.

Hi Mark,
what a pity! I really think the combination of J and ABCL is a superb platform for Common Lisp development. Alas I do not like Emacs and J is like a fresh breeze.
I'd very much like this issue to be fixed by somebody in the know.
Thx for the prompt and to the point response!
Regards, Arie

Hi, I just started with ABCL using the J editor on WinXP SP3.
I replaced the ABCL jar in the J lib with the latest 0.23.1, but also
in the old
version ABCL 0.19 I had the same errors.
I am able to create and save a very simple lisp file. However, when I use the menu function: Mode | Compile and load file I get this:
[1] CL-USER(3): ;;; Compiling and loading D:\src\lisp\plus.lisp ... #<THREAD "JLisp interpreter" {FD5428}>: Debugger invoked on condition
of type
FILE-ERROR The file "D:/src/lisp/srclispplus.lisp" does not exist.
It seems that somewhere under the hood the filename gets corrupted. Trying to change the name using double backslashes in the text box
above the
source file does have no effect.
Can I change this behaviour?
From your report, it seems likely that you are encountering problems stemming from the use of forward slash as the PATHNAME separator on all platforms in [abcl-0.21][1] (N.B. strings with backslash characters are normalized by the PATHNAME routines to forward slashes so such input should be fine). What is odd about your report, is that abcl-0.19 does not have this "all slashes become forward slashes" behavior, so it should not produce the same kind of error.
Unfortunately, ABCL development was split off from J quite some time ago (three years?). Wethe ABCL developers on armedbear-developdo not actively test with the J source tree, nor do we make the J releases. If there are J developers out there who wish help bringing the integrated ABCL release forward to solve this issue, we would be more than happy to assist by debugging/modifying our side.
