For those who are interested, lp#515807 contains a discussion about how we'd like to customize LOAD-OP so that on some files it would load the source (but what on ECL and MKCL?), whereas on some systems it would load a bundle, etc. https://bugs.launchpad.net/asdf/+bug/515807 —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Living your life is a task so difficult, it has never been attempted before.

[asdf-devel] clisp 2.49 still fails tests ...
by Robert Goldman 04 Feb '13

04 Feb '13

On Mac OS X I get: BAD: Loading ASDF on clisp produces messages make[1]: *** [test-clean-load] Error 1 make: *** [test-all-noupgrade] Error 1 But I think it passes all the actual tests: -#--------------------------------------- Using clisp Ran 44 tests: 44 passing and 0 failing all tests apparently successful -#--------------------------------------- Maybe makefile testing needs to be modified to ignore these messages for clisp? IIRC you were saying they were not avoidable... best, r

1. ecl ECL (Embeddable Common-Lisp) 12.12.1 -#--------------------------------------- Using ecl Ran 44 tests: 42 passing and 2 failing failing test(s): test-multiple.script test-run-program.script -#--------------------------------------- 2. abcl Armed Bear Common Lisp 1.1.0.2 -#--------------------------------------- Using abcl Ran 44 tests: 42 passing and 2 failing failing test(s): test-encodings.script test-logical-pathname.script -#--------------------------------------- I ran ccl clisp sbcl ecl abcl allegro allegromodern For allegro, I tested both 8.2 and 9.0. So this is pretty darn good! Best, Robert

[asdf-devel] Alternate take on the intended use of component-property
by Dan Lentz 03 Feb '13

03 Feb '13

I was always under the impression that the intent of C-P was to provide a means of annotation primarily to be used at runtime by the ”end-user". For example, say if one were interested in some type of statistic, say SLOC, for comparison and analysis of a (possibly large) number of systems, One might conveniently calculate and store that value as the :SLOC property within each component while being visited, and then aggregate the result at some later time. Deprecating the expectation of standardized property access for use by the actual day-to-day developer working with asdf systems would seem to lead to a profusion of half-baked off the cuff "solutions" reimplemented each time such a need presents itself. Also, the property slot is a direct slot of component, very early in the hierarchy, and so is transparently inherited by each increasingly complex subclass of component on upwards through the class hierarchy. Are you saying that if one needs it then one should subclass component to include some property slot, and also then subclass module likewise, and then system also, etc? So to get this scratchpad working space means essentially one needs to reimplement the whole asdf class hierarchy? FWIW, I think there are many situations in which the component-property provides a more sensible facility than would ad-hoc archetypal extension of ASDF's fundamental object model. Am I misunderstanding the proposed changes? Regards, Dan.

[asdf-devel] component-property

Dear Red, I see that you're using component-property to add a website property to your .asd files. On the one hand, I am deprecating component-property in ASDF3, so you should stop using that. For the sake of backward-compatibility, I'll add dummy methods so your existing code keeps compiling, but they won't do anything if I can get away with it. On the other hand, now is a good time for me to add new slots to system objects. I will add a website slot in 2.26.171, though you'll have to #+asdf3 :website #+asdf3 "http://xxx" for now. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org The Keyboard is mightier than the Death Ray...

I grabbed the latest sources and ran make test with current cmucl. The basic tests pass but I get this: -#--------------------------------------- Using cmulisp Ran 44 tests: 44 passing and 0 failing all tests apparently successful -#--------------------------------------- ./test/run-tests.sh -c cmucl ./test/run-tests.sh -l cmucl fare-all Loading all these systems: fare-all [snip] Trying to load FARE-ALL TEST ABORTED: Component FARE-ALL not found Can I just ignore this?

Dear Bill, cl-glfw-opengl fails to build with the current ASDF 3 release candidates on CCL and SBCL, because of the following forward reference warnings: ; Undefined functions: ; CL-GLFW-OPENGL:ATTACH-OBJECT-ARB CL-GLFW-OPENGL:ATTACH-SHADER CL-GLFW-OPENGL:COMPILE-SHADER CL-GL FW-OPENGL:COMPILE-SHADER-ARB CL-GLFW-OPENGL:CREATE-PROGRAM CL-GLFW-OPENGL:CREATE-PROGRAM-OBJECT-ARB CL- GLFW-OPENGL:CREATE-SHADER CL-GLFW-OPENGL:CREATE-SHADER-OBJECT-ARB CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-INFO-LOG-ARB CL-GL FW-OPENGL:GET-OBJECT-PARAMETER-IV-ARB CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-PROGRAM-INFO-LOG CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-PROGRAM-IV CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-SHADER-INFO-LOG CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-SHADER-IV CL-GLFW-OPENGL:GET-STRING CL-GLFW-OPEN GL:LINK-PROGRAM CL-GLFW-OPENGL:LINK-PROGRAM-ARB CL-GLFW-OPENGL:SHADER-SOURCE CL-GLFW-OPENGL:SHADER-SOUR CE-ARB ; Undefined variables: ; CL-GLFW-OPENGL::*SYNCHRONIZING-SHADER-PROGRAMS* CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+COMPILE-STATUS+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+F RAGMENT-SHADER+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+FRAGMENT-SHADER-ARB+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+INFO-LOG-LENGTH+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+L INK-STATUS+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+OBJECT-COMPILE-STATUS-ARB+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+OBJECT-INFO-LOG-LENGTH-ARB+ CL-G LFW-OPENGL:+OBJECT-LINK-STATUS-ARB+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+VERTEX-SHADER+ CL-GLFW-OPENGL:+VERTEX-SHADER-ARB+ ; caught 15 WARNING conditions ; caught 24 STYLE-WARNING conditions It looks like there are a lot of undeclared dependencies in your systems.

It's still time to have parse-component-form call a better validation function that does such checks, and otherwise have some &allow-other-keys mechanism.
