[Bordeaux-threads-devel] Clarifying some behavior in the documentation
by Vladimir Sedach 01 Dec '10

01 Dec '10

Hello, I've encountered two cases that affect behavior of code but aren't clarified in the documentation: 1. At least one implementation (SBCL) requires that the lock on which condition-wait is called is to be held by the thread that calls condition-notify on the corresponding CV. This should be mentioned in the documentation as a requirement. 2. It is undefined what happens when release-lock is called inside a with-lock-held on the same lock. SBCL and Clozure appear to handle this "properly," although I think the documented behavior should be the same as with regular release-lock ("It is an error to call this unless the lock has previously been acquired (and not released) by the same thread," that is, it should be an error to call release-lock inside a with-lock-held). Thank you, Vladimir

[Bordeaux-threads-devel] *default-special-bindings* docstring in 0-8-8-dev
by james anderson 04 Sep '10

04 Sep '10

re: (defvar *default-special-bindings* nil "This variable holds an alist associating special variable symbols to forms to evaluate. Special variables named in this list will be locally bound in the new thread before it begins executing user code. This variable may be rebound around calls to MAKE-THREAD to add/alter default bindings. The effect of mutating this list is undefined, but earlier forms take precedence over later forms for the same symbol, so defaults may be overridden by consing to the head of the list.") at least for sbcl and clozure, one needs to append to the list. does the spec say something else somewhere? * (progv '(a s a) '(1 2 3) a) ; in: LAMBDA NIL ; (PROGV '(A S A) '(1 2 3) A) ; --> LET UNWIND-PROTECT FLET BLOCK MULTIPLE-VALUE-BIND MULTIPLE- VALUE-CALL ; --> BLOCK SB-C::%WITHIN-CLEANUP RETURN-FROM ; ==> ; (PROGN ; (LABELS ((#:UNBIND1 (SB-C::VARS) ; (DECLARE #) ; (LET # ; #)) ; (#:BIND0 (SB-C::VARS SB-C::VALS) ; (DECLARE #) ; (COND # # #))) ; (#:BIND0 '(A S A) '(1 2 3))) ; NIL ; A) ; ; caught WARNING: ; undefined variable: A ; ; compilation unit finished ; Undefined variable: ; A ; caught 1 WARNING condition 3 *

[Bordeaux-threads-devel] Is there a multi-implementation way to get a timeout on condition-notify?
by Matt Lamari 18 Aug '10

18 Aug '10

On lispworks (6) there's condition-notify-with-timeout. On SBCL - not sure - there's a with-timeout that can make a form throw; but a little birdie told me that it's not supported on all platforms. Any good ideas? I've toyed with ideas for emulating it; but they tend to fall down under scrutiny.

The API documentation link on http://common-lisp.net/project/bordeaux-threads/ is dead, and I can't find a replacement. -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future.

by james anderson 15 Feb '10

good morning; i have released a library, de.setf.amqp[1], which incorporates work of yours. the combined license is the gnu affero. please see the readme[2] for more information. this is to verify the contact information for your library's license. yours is the last respective contact. in some cases, there was none and i have substituted a mailing list as an immediate place-holder, even though, as subscription-only lists, it is not well suited to this purpose. please advise me, should an alternative contact be available.
