uiop non-problems
by Faré 20 Oct '17

20 Oct '17

Dear Xach, I saw your blog post: http://lispblog.xach.com/post/166534341423/uiop-330-problems There are no comments on your blog, so I'll just clarify things on the asdf-devel list: * The situation you describe is not at all a problem specific to uiop 3.3.0, or any other version of uiop. uiop.asd hasn't changed since 3.2.0, and the "issue" already existed before, and exists when there is no uiop.asd available but only the builtin uiop. * The situation you describe, where some libraries are loaded multiple times, is a bug in ASDF, that was fixed in 3.3.0 --- actually, fixing this situation and other related situations was the very reason why I had to teach ASDF about build phases, which lead to the big refactoring done in 3.3.0. * All build systems have to either face the issue of build system extension, or put their head in the sand and do the wrong thing. At least ASDF 3.3.0 does the right thing now, whereas earlier versions put their head in the sand as far as that issue was concerned. (I also know that Bazel has a proper solution, though it involves using a non-extensible DSL for extensions). * At least in that case, the issue is not too bad: just some system recompiled, that will also cause more recompilation the next time, but don't cause an infinite loop, just a waste of CPU time. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org In Italia i fascisti si dividono in due categorie: i fascisti e gli antifascisti. — Ennio Flaiano

Warning: Computing just-done stamp in plan NIL for action
by Stas Boukarev 18 Oct '17

18 Oct '17

More new warnings from ASDF 3.3, this time I have no idea what it means. WARNING: Computing just-done stamp in plan NIL for action (ASDF/LISP-ACTION:LOAD-OP "system"), but dependency (ASDF/FIND-SYSTEM:DEFINE-OP "system") wasn't done yet! The .asd file is not public, but it looks perfectly normal without using any complicated features.

monolithic-concatenate-source-op misses a few dependencies
by Ben Vulpes 17 Oct '17

17 Oct '17

On SBCL 1.3.11, when producing a monolithic source concatenation with the library "Postmodern", asdf produces a file that needs a Lisp image to need manual calls to (require :usocket) and (require :md5) in order to load completely. Given: concatenatrix.asd as: (asdf:defsystem :concatenatrix :build-operation monolithic-concatenate-source-op :build-pathname "build/full-concatenation" :depends-on (:postmodern) :components ((:file "concatenatrix"))) concatenatrix.lisp as: (defpackage :concatenatrix (:use :cl :postmodern)) (in-package :concatenatrix) (defun wat (it) (format t "~A~%" it)) Concatenated sources produced with: (asdf:make :concatenatrix) Loading tested with: sbcl --noinform --disable-debugger --load build/full-concatenation.lisp Produces: Unhandled SB-C::INPUT-ERROR-IN-LOAD in thread #<SB-THREAD:THREAD "main thread" RUNNING {10027FE873}>: READ error during LOAD: Package SB-ROTATE-BYTE does not exist.

asdf defsystem worked in 3.2.1 but not 3.3.0
by Raymond Toy 15 Oct '17

15 Oct '17

The following defsystem worked in asdf 3.2.1 but no longer works in 3.3.0. The error message doesn't really help in figuring out what's circular. And I just can't see what's circular. The system: (asdf:defsystem :pcl-test :pathname "pcl/" :components ((:file "pkg") #+gerds-pcl (:file "ctor" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "defclass" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "make-instance" :depends-on ("pkg" #+gerds-pcl "ctor")) (:file "reinitialize-instance" :depends-on ("pkg" "make-instance")) (:file "slot-value" :depends-on ("pkg" "make-instance")) (:file "slot-boundp" :depends-on ("pkg" "make-instance")) (:file "slot-missing" :depends-on ("pkg" "make-instance")) (:file "slot-accessors" :depends-on ("pkg" "make-instance")) (:file "slot-type" :depends-on ("pkg" "slot-value")) (:file "inline-access" :depends-on ("pkg" "slot-type")) (:file "method-combination" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "pv" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "defgeneric" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "defmethod" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "find-method" :depends-on ("pkg")) (:file "methods" :depends-on ("pkg")))) -- Ray

syntax-control
by Faré 14 Oct '17

14 Oct '17

Due to the readtable bug in ASDF 3.3.0 I updated the "syntax-control" branch that for the last three years was supposed to solve all readtable bugs when building with ASDF. I merged 3.3.0.1 into the branch, but the branch itself is not ready for merging into master: it does either too much or too little, and must be either completed or simplified. I think it stands a better chance of bieng merged soon if it is simplified, so I re-read and re-wrote the documentation for what this branch should be doing, and detailed a "Proposal 1" for minimal changes to ASDF that would go a long way towards bringing sanity in builds of software that modify the syntax. I sollicit your feedback: https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf/blob/syntax-control/doc/syntax-con… —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org Problem of the day: finding suction cups that don't suck.

new compiler error re: SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER
by Konstanski, Carlos 13 Oct '17

13 Oct '17

This is a bug report. I'm using puri as an example, but it's not a puri bug. With the latest version of asdf (3.3.0) puri no longer compiles. The following compiler error is thrown: SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER would modify the standard readtable. [Condition of type ASDF/FIND-SYSTEM:LOAD-SYSTEM-DEFINITION-ERROR] In: 0: (SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER #\# #\u #<FUNCTION PURI::SHARP-U> #<READTABLE {100002D6C3}>) The code: (defun sharp-u (stream chr arg) (declare (ignore chr arg)) (let ((arg (read stream nil nil t))) (if *read-suppress* nil (if* (stringp arg) then (parse-uri arg) else (internal-reader-error stream "#u takes a string or list argument: ~s" arg))))) (set-dispatch-macro-character #\# #\u #'puri::sharp-u) What puri is doing re: SET-DISPATCH-MACRO-CHARACTER is totally by the book. Why is this suddenly an error? Is there a workaround? Backing up to the next most recent release of asdf makes the problem go away: dev-lisp/asdf-3.2.1-r1:0/3.2.1-r1 dev-lisp/uiop-3.2.1:0 I tried to find the asdf changelog to see if this is a documented change. But the link is broken. https://common-lisp.net/project/asdf/Changelog uiop seems to be closely tied to asdf. Not sure which package is actually at fault. -- Carlos Konstanski

This is just a pre-existing error that was *manifested* because of a change in ASDF. It's not our fault that this error appeared, it's not our fault that the puri library is no longer maintained, and we can't be expected to avoid releasing improved versions of ASDF because there exists buggy, unmaintained code in Quicklisp. An apology from you would be appropriate at this point.

WARNING: System definition file ...
by Stas Boukarev 12 Oct '17

12 Oct '17

3.3.0 issues a barrage of new warnings about something it has decided is uncouth now. I really have no wish to stare at these warnings coming from third party libraries, especially since they're never going to be fixed. Is the old behavior posing problems? Is the old behavior going away soon? This is why I don't update ASDF, I don't want to change anything in my code because of a new version.

ASDF 3.3.0 is released!
by Robert Goldman 07 Oct '17

07 Oct '17

Today we release ASDF 3.3. The most substantial change is to the build planning process, which has been reformed by François-René Rideau so that DEFSYSTEM-DEPENDS-ON now behaves correctly. There are a number of other improvements, and we are indebted to Daniel Kochmanski, Rommel Martinez, and Chun Tian for contributions. Thanks again to Anton Vodonosov and Dave Cooper for support in testing, and new thanks to Martti Halminen, Jens K. Loewe, and Jason Miller. I would like to dedicate this ASDF release to the late Elias Pipping. On a technical level, Elias made great improvements in some of the most challenging ASDF internals, notably the RUN-PROGRAM component of UIOP, a place where implementations are not constrained by the language specification, diverge radically from each other, and are poorly documented. On a personal level, Elias was very supportive to me as ASDF maintainer, and while I was going through an illness. He did all these things despite being gravely ill with the cancer that eventually killed him. He will be greatly missed, Z'chrono L'vracha. We urge implementations that are currently bundling previous versions of ASDF to adopt 3.3.0 at their earliest convenience. The improvements offered in this release will substantially improved the reliability and predictability of ASDF use. Details on bugfixes can be found at https://launchpad.net/asdf and in the discussions in merged branches of https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf Here is the changelog entry for 3.3: cl-asdf (2:3.3.0-1) unstable; urgency=low New milestone: * Build-plan: Extensively revised the build plan process so that :DEFSYSTEM-DEPENDS-ON would work correctly, even when depended on systems change (which didn't work before).
