New subject: [armedbear-devel] How can I build ABCL 1.1.1 without recording the absolute path of the source ?

23 Feb 2013


      JDK 7 before 1.7.0_04 had some funkiness with loading things, which I never fully investigated.  Please try to update to 1.7.0_15 to see if you have the same problems.

Thanks in advanced, Mark. Now it works for some symbols (e.g. DISASSEMBLE).
But, every time I performed this on all symbols, it threw exceptions and crashed.

Unable to autoload CLASS-DIRECT-SLOTS
So I tried to restart ABCL and resolve CLASS-DIRECT-SLOTS manually.
CL-USER(1): (autoload 'class-direct-slots)
T
CL-USER(2): (resolve 'class-direct-slots)
#<THREAD "interpreter" {EF89C6}>: Debugger invoked on condition of type ERROR
  Failed to find loadable system file 'class-direct-slots' in boot classpath.
Restarts:
  0: TOP-LEVEL Return to top level.
Did I miss something ? Or say, how to solve this problem ?

Congratulations!  You've met the autoloader, now level up...
In order to reduce initial system boot times (and also to partially optimize for booting over the network), not all functions corresponding to symbols in the base ABCL system are loaded initially.  Instead, the symbol function slot contains a stub which when first executed as a function loads the necessary code, which as a side effect also populates the symbol plist.
Users of the implementation may currently interact with this mechanism meaningfullly through the EXT:AUTOLOADP and EXT:RESOLVE functions, which tell you if a symbol needs to be autoloaded and to resolve it, respectively.
Using these functions we may define
(defun maybe-resolve-symbol-plist (symbol)
  (when (autoloadp symbol)
    (resolve symbol))
 (symbol-plist symbol))


which you can then use in your code to change the source locations.
yers,
Mark

Thanks.
More details, I found that after the REPL started:
; SLIME 2011-10-19
CL-USER> (symbol-plist 'disassemble)
NIL
CL-USER> (disassemble 'disassemble)
; Compiled from "disassemble.lisp"
... very long output
NIL
CL-USER> (symbol-plist 'disassemble)
(SYSTEM::%SOURCE (#P"L:/abcl-src-1.1.1/src/org/armedbear/lisp/disassemble.lisp" . 1693))
After I called DISASSEMBLE, the result of (symbol-plist 'disassemble) was not NIL. How can I make the result of the first (symbol-plist 'disassemble) no NIL?
 Best regards,

Hi, all
I built ABCL 1.1.1 using Ant. After I built it, I found that the source
locations of all the symbols are absolute path. For exmaple:
[1] CL-USER(1): (symbol-plist 'defun)
(SYSTEM::%SOURCE
(#P"L:/abcl-src-1.1.1/src/org/armedbear/lisp/precompiler.lisp" . 44441)
PRECOMPILER::PRECOMPILE-HANDLER PRECOMPILER::PRECOMPILE-DEFUN)
I tried  using '--nosystem', setting (LOGICAL-PATHNAME-TRANSLATIONS
"sys") by myself, and even deleting system.lisp from the jar. But the
source location didn't change.
How can I build ABCL 1.1.1 without recording the absolute path of the
source ? Or, making the source location changable so that I can locate
it even if I change the path of the source code ? I think I can do it
manually by i.g.
(dolist (pkg (list-all-packages))
  (do-symbols (sym pkg)
             if there exists system::%source in symbol-plist, replace it)).
Is there any other way to do this ?
Currently, there is no way of building to not recording the physical
pathname, but there should be.  The values stored in the symbol plists
should use the SYS:SRC logical pathname.  I've recorded this as ticket
[#301][].
