[asdf-devel] asdf 2.24 released
by Faré 26 Aug '12

26 Aug '12

I am pleased to announce the release of ASDF 2.24. Since previous release 2.23, the changes are as follow: Portability: * ACL: handle SMP vs non-SMP builds in Allegro 9.0 * MKCL: add support for ManKai Common Lisp * ECL: merge improvements from ECL git. Refactor ECL support somewhat. * Remove broken-fasl-support: first, cormanlisp is supposed to have fixed it; second, cormanlisp is dead; third, one can now (setf *load-system-operation* 'load-source-op) instead. Internals: * renaming ends-with to string-suffix-p to avoid conflict with alexandria. * Refactor load-system to use *load-system-operation*, and change require-system and module-provide-asdf to use that. Also note: * We recommend you use asdf-utils to access the utilities in asdf. Some time next year, we may stop exporting the utilities from asdf itself. * To avoid conflicts between alexandria, fare-utils, xcvb-driver, asdf-utils, etc., you can use xcvb-utils that solves the conflicts. Or you can use fare-utils:define-package-mix that will help you automatically resolve them. These changes are few and subtle, but nonetheless significant to those who'd use these features. As usual, developers, please test and enjoy, vendors, please update your implementation or distribution. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Corollaries to the Law of Bitur-Camember: The political process destroys the value of all known resources that are up for grabs.

Dear Lispers, I'd like to release ASDF 2.24 some time next week. Since last release 2.23, the improvements are mostly related to portability: * ACL: handle SMP vs non-SMP builds in Allegro 9.0 * MKCL: add support for ManKai Common Lisp * ECL: merge improvements from ECL git. Refactor ECL support somewhat. * Remove broken-fasl-support: first, cormanlisp is supposed to have fixed it; second, cormanlisp is dead; third, one can now (setf *load-system-operation* 'load-source-op) instead. * renaming ends-with to string-suffix-p to avoid conflict with alexandria. * Refactor load-system to use *load-system-operation*, and change require-system and module-provide-asdf to use that. Also note: * We recommend you use asdf-utils to access the utilities in asdf. Some time next year, we may stop exporting the utilities from asdf itself. * To avoid conflicts between alexandria, fare-utils, xcvb-driver, asdf-utils, etc., you can use xcvb-utils that solves the conflicts.

[asdf-devel] [PATCH] Distinguish ACL SMP fasls from non-SMP ones
by Kevin Layer 07 Aug '12

07 Aug '12

This fix is from Mr. Kiyoshi Mizumaru. It adds an "S" to the lisp-version-string in the ACL SMP case. --- asdf.lisp | 5 +++-- 1 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/asdf.lisp b/asdf.lisp index 00f40fe..006746c 100644 --- a/asdf.lisp +++ b/asdf.lisp @@ -3256,13 +3256,14 @@ located."
