#180: stack overflow with lparallel ---------------------------------------------------------+------------------ Reporter: mevenson | Owner: mevenson Type: defect | Status: new Priority: major | Milestone: unscheduled Component: other | Version: 1.0 Keywords: lparallel stack-overflow jvm multi-threaded | ---------------------------------------------------------+------------------ With the [http://lparallel.com very interesting lparallel library], ABCL can get into some stack overflow situations (especially on newer JVM implementations). Also, I get the feeling that the BORDEAUX-THREADS mapping for ABCL is not optimal, as when I run LPARALLEL full out on a many worker kernel, I don't maximize the actual available CPU/RAM on a multicore x64 system. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/180> armedbear <http://common-lisp.net/project/armedbear> armedbear

The spec requires that identical objects in the source be identical in the compiled file as per the first sentence of [http://www.lispworks.com/documentation/HyperSpec/Body/03_bdd.htm section 3.2.4.4]. As a consequence, we'll need an ''object table'' of some kind, allowing the object to be referenced further down in the file compilation. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/169> armedbear <http://common-lisp.net/project/armedbear> armedbear

That means that all my logical pathnames are always upcase letters, and no special symbols (apart from an occasional dash). I understand that using implementation dependant syntax (special characters, lower-case, mixed-case) in logical pathnames can lead to surprises, but I avoid them. Now, it's not a question of extinct file systems. You still have to deal with at least two different major syntaxes: POSIX and MS-Windows/MS-DOS. I just cannot use in programs that will have to run on both Linux or MacOSX and MS-Windows physical pathname literals, because they don't use the same syntax. On the other hand, #P"HOME:SRC;LISP;EXAMPLE.LISP" can be translated to either #P"C:\\Users Files\\Pascal\\src\\lisp\\example.lisp" or #P"/home/pjb/src/lisp/example.lisp" portably on these targets. The point for an implementation is to know what it's targets are, and to implement proper behavior when translating and merging logical pathnames. You must be careful when merging logical pathnames with physical pathnames, notably when it's done in make-pathname: the :case parameter must have effect only on the new strings, not on the :defaults parameter. > > I suppose there is no definition of "customary case", huh?

Does Java provide its own file system, or does it map to the host file system? Notice that logical pathnames don't have to be able to represent all the physical pathnames, without an explicit translation. If you have a file system that is case sensitive, then you may write: (setf (logical-pathname-translations "APP") (list (list #P"APP:EXAMPLE;FILE.LISP" #P"/MyApp/Example/File.lisp") (list #P"APP:EXAMPLE;ANOTHER-FILE.LISP" #P"/MyApp/Example/AnotherFile.lisp") (list #P"APP:EXAMPLE;*.DATA" #P"/MyApp/Example/*.appdata") (list #P"APP:EXAMPLE;SOME-MODULE.*" #P"/MyApp/Example/SomeBigModule.*") (list #P"APP:APP.CONFIGURATION" #P"/MyApp/.config") (list #P"APP:CUSTOMARY;**;*" #P"/MyApp;**;*") (list #P"APP:CUSTOMARY;**;*.*" #P"/MyApp;**;*.*"))) to be able to access to files with strange physical names. The question indeed is to decide what is the customary case. You can choose uppercase or you can choose lowercase. This matters only for file systems that are case sensitive, but even file systems that are not case sensitive, such as MS-DOS, have a prefered way to display the names. > > Lacking a more precise definition, I would then advocate that we declare > > lowercase to be the customary case across UNIX, OSX, and Windows for > > ABCL, patching our behavior accordingly.
