#32: Modify the currently disabled runtime-class.lisp code to not require ASM

Keywords: jvm bytecode compiler runtime dynamic class generation |
--------------------------------------------------------------------+-------
It's possible to define classes at runtime, by generating bytecode and
loading it from the generated binary data, without ever writing it to a
temporary file. runtime-class.lisp does that, but it requires an external
bytecode library (ASM). ABCL has all the functionality for this to be done
without ASM, so the task is to modify the runtime-class.lisp code so that
ASM is no longer required and the code can be taken to be part of the
build.

#30: Lisp debugger, for both compiled and interpreted code
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
Reporter: vvoutilainen | Owner: somebody

Keywords: debug debugger |
----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
ABCL code can be debugged with normal java debuggers, but it
is somewhat painful for the portions implemented in lisp(1). So we need a
lisp debugger.
(1) It's possible, although a bit tedious, to step through
eval calls in a java debugger by examining the cars and
cdrs of eval parameters when stepping the code.

#18: Incorporate 'invoke.lisp' dynamic classpath ability

Alan Ruttenberg's [invoke.lisp][1] has the ability to easily add
additional Java JARs at runtime by using the [beanshell classloader][2].
With a few additions to the ASDF system, this allows one to easily specify
"wrappings" of Java components which load JARs or find classfiles on the
filesystem.
The code in the Beanshell classmanager could be added to the ABCL src tree
fairly easily to facilitate this behavior.

I'd really like the ability to pop an
asdf central registry directory into the abcl jar and have abcl be
able to asdf load from there. Would really simplify packaging apps
based on abcl.

#29: Support loading system files off other paths (in a JAR) than the default

In order to enable easy packaging of a system into a jar file, one
that might even be usable as an applet, a small change is needed.
Currently load-system-file can read an .abcl compiled file set from
the abcl jar. Actually, it doesn't load the .abcl directly. That file
is a zip file with a "top level" file with a "._" extension and a
bunch of .cls files. The unpacked contents of these files live in the
abcl jar, with the "._" file renamed to have the extension ".abcl".
The loading happens by first loading the "._" file, a file of lisp
forms, which when evaluated, in turn calls load-compiled-function on
each of the component .cls files (plus does some other stuff). All of
these files live in a single directory in the jar file: org/armedbear/
lisp/
I'd like to be able to load from a subdirectory of that, in which I
would put my files. I can tell load-system-file to load the initial
abcl file from the subdirectory, say, org/armedbear/lisp/util/, but
then load-compiled-function wants to load the components from org/
armedbear/lisp. So the small change is to set *load-truename* in load-
system-file, based on the supplied path, and then to use it as the
pathname defaults when executing the call to load-compiled-function.
It seems to do this for the case where it loads from the regular file
system, but not when working with the jar file.
Once this change is in place, to package up a system, one would unjar
abcl.jar, move one's compiled files in to a subdirectory of org/
armedbear/lisp, unzip all of them, rename *._ to *.abcl, and jar them
back up.
One could them load a file from the jar with: (sys:load-system-file
"mydir/foo.abcl")
loadCompiledFunction is defined in Lisp.java and loadSystemFile in
Load.java

SLIME from CVS HEAD fails to load with r11371, as it apparently needs
with-mutex.lisp.
The attached patch adds 'with-mutex.lisp' to the ABCL jar.
