[bknr-devel] BKNR.datastore snapshot frequency and old snapshots
by Vladimir Sedach 30 Dec '11

30 Dec '11

Hello, How often should a BKNR datastore be snapshot? I tried daily, but that is clearly too much. Is there a criteria (# of transaction since last snapshot) that can be used to determine this programmatically? Related to this, are snapshots linked to each other? Are old ones unneeded? Is it ok to delete them if they are? Vladimir

[bknr-devel] Deftransaction and &rest args
by Vladimir Sedach 13 Dec '11

13 Dec '11

Hello, Deftransaction permits &rest args, but they don't seem to be recorded in the store. Is the correct behavior that &rest args should not be valid in a deftransaction lambda-list, or is this a bug in storing them? Thanks, Vladimir

Hi, I'd like to be able to store vectors of element-type '(unsigned-byte 8) using bknr.datastore. The included patch seems work to that end. Please consider it for inclusion. Thank you, Vladimir

[bknr-devel] BKNR Porter stemmer
by Vladimir Sedach 07 Dec '11

The Porter stemmer from the BKNR repository is the one that comes with quicklisp. I noticed a bug when stemming the word "ion" due to the special case for that suffix. Attached is a patch. This bug isn't present in the code on Porter's own site (http://tartarus.org/martin/PorterStemmer/commonlisp.txt) Happy hacking, Vladimir
