Hi all:
Hmm - I had been using Celtk for about half a year now for serious development work in ACL. I am now trying to do so on LW but have it keeping crashing when loading the TCL framework. This is on Mac OS X 10.4.10 Intel.
Any similar experiences by anyone?
Thanks!

Just every time I try to port anything from ACL to LW. :) Corrollary: I never expect the simplest port from ACL to LW to Just Work. LW is fussier than ACL but in my experience once I track these things down I always have to admit that LW was right. Sometimes this had to do with me specifying the wrong module to CFFI, something ACL ignores IIRC. But whatever it is, it will come down to something highly-specific, so try to find out exactly when/where the crash happens and get back to me with the deets if it does not jump out at you.

Hehe - feels like back in 2004 when porting Cello to Linux ;-) (wow - 3 years gone since then ...)
I made up a very small test function:
(defun main () (setf celtk::*tki* nil) (cells-reset 'tk-uer-queue-handler) (celtk::tk-interp-init-ensure) (setf celtk::*tki* (celtk::Tcl_CreateInterp)) (celtk::tk-app-init celtk::*tki*) ;; <<< See below ! )
From file Celtk.lisp:
(defun tk-app-init (interp) (Tcl_Init interp) ;; <<<< --- Still Ok. (Tk_Init interp) ;; <<<< --- Crashes here ... ;;(format t "~%*** Tk_AppInit has been called.~%") ;; Return OK (foreign-enum-value 'tcl-retcode-values :tcl-ok))
As interp is a void ptr there's no way of inspecting it for meaningful contents ... lost.
