Hi.
The following transcript demonstrates the problem.

DEFCLASS seems to work fine, though I would like to keep using DEFSTRUCT. I understand that the MOP is not really complete. However, Is there a workaround that will not resort in using DEFCLASS?
At glance, what you ask is not there but can be implemented without too much effort. Structures already carry (on the Java side) information about their slots, which is used by the inspector. So, stay tuned ;)
Cheers, Alessio
I usually use WITH-SLOTS on structures, too, even though strictly, it's not portable. Many implementations seem to support it just fine. So yeah, go ahead and make it work on ABCL, too. :-)
