[asdf-devel] Fwd: asdf 2.26 released
by Faré 02 Nov '12

02 Nov '12

Dear Lisp hackers, I am pleased to announce the release of ASDF 2.26. Since previous release 2.25, the changes are as follow: Portability: * Lispworks: enable sys:get-folder-path on Personal Edition for Windows. * ECL: add proper wrapping-source-registry -- very important. Other: * Package change: removed the old ASDF-UTILITIES package nickname for ASDF. Please use the separate ASDF-UTILS system and package for utilities. * compile-file-pathname* bug fix for :output-file nil. Fixes lp#1067617. * get-folder-path factored out of various functions, thanks to Martin Simmons for the suggestion: at long last a change that REDUCES the amount of code in ASDF! As usual, developers, please test and enjoy, vendors, please update your implementation or distribution. (And yes, it would be nice if Quicklisp updated its ASDF at least once a year) —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org You think that by not releasing your in-house software, you save engineering resources.

[asdf-devel] ASDF breaks ECL's use of :PATHNAME
by Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

Currently, ASDF ignores all file types supplied by the user when specifying a :PATHNAME value for a component. This did not happen before, though. This is kind of annoying and hard to deal with, due to ECL's need of prebuilt ASDF files -- these are ASDF components that contain files with precompile sources, whose file extension need not coincide with the one being used by ASDF at the time. For instance, ECL may be launched with the bytecodes compiler as default (file extension is ".fasc"), but require to load sockets.asd, which contains the precompiled binary file sockets.fas, as in (DEFSYSTEM "sockets" :CLASS ASDF::PREBUILT-SYSTEM :LIB #P"SYS:LIBSOCKETS.A" :DEPENDS-ON NIL :COMPONENTS ((:COMPILED-FILE "sockets" :PATHNAME #P"SYS:SOCKETS.FAS"))) What would be the appropriate fix for this?

[asdf-devel] asdf and quicklisp
by Faré 12 Oct '12

12 Oct '12

Dear Zach, I'm a bit concerned about quicklisp shipping with a very old version of ASDF. Quicklisp says it depends on ASDF 2.011 or later in its *required-asdf-version*, but then you ship with 2.014.6 to load if the implementation's ASDF is too old. Both 2.011 and 2.014.6 are antique by ASDF standards, and what more, being older than 2.015, have trouble with self-upgrade as part of loading other systems that depend on ASDF. Actually, the good version for self-upgrade is 2.014.8, but I'm rounding to the next stable release; which brings me to my next point: 2.014.6 is not just old, but it's not a supported release version (not that all release versions are stable; 2.015 had many issues; but the supported answer is always to upgrade to the next stable release). What is the policy for upgrading the ASDF in Quicklisp? If it's not "never, ever", is it possible to upgrade your ASDF to something more recent? For instance, quicklisp contains asdf-encodings and xcvb which depend on asdf 2.21 for its :encoding feature, and asdf-finalizers which depends on asdf 2.23 for its :compile-check feature. Even without speaking of features, numerous implementation-specific fixes were committed since 2.014.6, and new implementations are supported. Why, of all CL software, is ASDF the only one never to be updated with Quicklisp? Is there anything I can do to make things more comfortable for you with respect to upgrading ASDF? PS: I otherwise think your work with Quicklisp is wonderful. —♯ƒ • François-René ÐVB Rideau •Reflection&Cybernethics• http://fare.tunes.org The penalty for laughing in a courtroom is six months in jail; if it were not for this penalty, the jury would never hear the evidence. — H.

[asdf-devel] asdf 2.25 released
by Faré 06 Oct '12

06 Oct '12

Dear Lisp hackers, I am pleased to announce the release of ASDF 2.25. Since previous release 2.24, the changes are as follow: Portability: * Lispworks: avoid professional edition functions in personal edition. * CormanLisp: improve support a little bit. * Exports: don't export utilities anymore. Please use asdf-utils. Internals: * We stopped exporting the utilities from asdf itself. We recommend you use asdf-utils to access the utilities in asdf. 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. 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 The secret of survival is: Always expect the unexpected. — Dr. Who

[asdf-devel] Quick note on tests
by Robert Goldman 13 Sep '12

13 Sep '12

Running the tests on the latest git version on Mac OS X Lion, CCL 64-bit, version 1.8, I got four failing tests: failing test(s): test-configuration.script test-multiple.script test-static-and-serial.script test-utilities.script Haven't had a chance to investigate further -- I suppose this could be a local issue -- but thought I'd pass it on sooner, rather than later. More as I have details. cheers, r

[asdf-devel] Using asdf with Corman Lisp 3
by Didier Verna 12 Sep '12

12 Sep '12

Hello, I'm trying to use ASDF (git repo) with Corman Lisp 3.0 natively on Windows. I managed to have Corman Lisp load ASDF, but now I have a configuration problem. I have a file C:\Users\Didier\.config\common-lisp\source-registry.conf which contains this: (:source-registry (:tree "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Common Lisp\") :inherit-configuration) But ASDF doesn't find any of the packages I put there. asdf::*source-registry* seems to be NIL. What am I doing wrong ? Thanks ! -- Resistance is futile. You will be jazzimilated. Scientific site: http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~didier Music (Jazz) site: http://www.didierverna.com

[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.

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.
