[asdf-devel] Recognizing directories in a component name
by Faré 13 Sep '09

13 Sep '09

For years now, we at ITA have been satisfied with a patch that does the following while building QRes: allow to specify module names that include a directory component, without having to redundantly as in (:module "subdir1/subdir2" :components ((:file "subdir3/name3") (:file "subdir4/name4.subname4"))) instead of the cumbersome (to be portable): (:module "subdir1/subdir2" :pathname #.(make-pathname :directory '(:relative "subdir" "subdir2")) :components ((:file "subdir3/name3" :pathname #.(make-pathname :directory '(:relative "subdir3" :name "name3"))) (:file "subdir4/name4.subname4" :pathname #.(make-pathname :directory '(:relative "subdir4" :name "name4.subname4")))))) Since there is active ASDF development again, I cleaned it up and here it is. The methods should replace those currently in ASDF. The helper function now uses the existing ASDF split function (as previously requested by Xof). The patch is both backwards compatible and portable, in that * the "/" character was previously forbidden in names of portable components without a :pathname statement, least it breaks miserably on most platforms. * the "/" character is now recognized by ASDF itself as a separator for directories later made with make-pathname, thus doing what is expected even on the odd platform without "/" as the pathname separator. [ François-René ÐVB Rideau | Reflection&Cybernethics | http://fare.tunes.org ] Selfishness is the measure of all good (and bad) in the world. There cannot be any good whatsoever without a self to feel it. WHO is whatever "altruistic" oppression ever good for? No one. Why is gratuitous vandalism or well-intentioned mass murder bad? Not because it is selfish, but precisely because it hurts other people's selfish interest.

[asdf-devel] my apologies - computer craziness
by Gary King 12 Sep '09

12 Sep '09

Hi all, The last revision to ASDF got bolluxed between my upgrade to Snow Leopard, computer issues, e-mail problems, etc. I've been unable to get e-mail on my regular account since yesterday. Killian Sprotte told me that the last update was hosed because of some extra #\)'s. Ugh. I'm trying to recover, thanks. -- Gary Warren King, gwking(a)franz.com, http://www.franz.com/ Franz Inc., 2201 Broadway, Suite 715, Oakland, CA 94612, USA Cell: (413) 559-8738 * FAX: (206) 338-4052

See attached file. It would be nice if there were a "precheckin" test for ASDF. [ François-René ÐVB Rideau | Reflection&Cybernethics | http://fare.tunes.org ] Never explain. Your friends do not need it and your enemies will never believe you anyway. -- Elbert Hubbard

[asdf-devel] announce : 1.365
by Gary King 11 Sep '09

11 Sep '09

This release includes ASDF-binary-locations in the ASDF.lisp file and makes some effort to improve the tagging / revision logic (with assist from Robert Goldman). I'm going to get ABL documentation into ASDF and (finally) incorporate Faré's patch too. -- Gary Warren King, metabang.com Cell: (413) 559 8738 Fax: (206) 338-4052 gwkkwg on Skype * garethsan on AIM * gwking on twitter

Hi Daniel, Faré, My apologies for lack of gitcompetence but I'm confused as to what I've done wrong. I've got > [parsnip:/repository/git/asdf] gwking% git describe --tag > 1.363 > [parsnip:/repository/git/asdf] gwking% git push --tags cl.net > Everything up-to-date but, as you both noted, the master repo on http://common-lisp.net/project/asdf isn't right.

(cc'd to list) Damn. The function disappeared recently (by my hand). I didn't realize (obviously) that it was used. I'll fix.

This release restores the `resolve-symlinks` function which I had removed while cleaning up without realizing that ASDF-Binary-Locations made use of it.

[asdf-devel] *ASDF-REVISION*
by Robert Goldman 08 Sep '09

08 Sep '09

Should I expect the *ASDF-REVISION* variable to work for me? Right now it's NIL. Is the definition of *ASDF-REVISION* a holdover from the CVS days, and no longer working, or is this YA case where there's something about git that I'm missing? Should I be doing something with the git pull that will get me a tags directory? thanks, r
