[cffi-devel] Typification and optimization in cffi-sbcl.lisp
by Yaroslav Kavenchuk 12 Oct '06

12 Oct '06

For example: from (defun pointer-eq (ptr1 ptr2) "Return true if PTR1 and PTR2 point to the same address." (sb-sys:sap= ptr1 ptr2)) to (declaim (inline pointer-eq)) (defun pointer-eq (ptr1 ptr2) "Return true if PTR1 and PTR2 point to the same address." (declare (type system-area-pointer ptr1 ptr2)) (sb-sys:sap= ptr1 ptr2)) This is need? Do it? And for other files? Thanks! -- WBR, Yaroslav Kavenchuk.

[cffi-devel] with-pointer-to-vector-data
by rpgoldman＠sift.info 22 Sep '06

22 Sep '06

I was trying to use Edi Weitz' drakma http client the other day, and found that it depends on cl+ssl which, in turn, uses CFFI's with-pointer-to-vector-data. I run ACL, and with-pointer-to-vector-data is commented out in cffi-allegro. I *believe* that the following definition is what's needed, but have not been able to test it well enough to be sure (I don't really know what might kill it); it was mostly assembled by stumbling through the Franz FF interface documentation. IIUC, we needn't do anything to get a pointer for the C code to use, the important thing is to avoid having the lisp gc move the byte vector around, which is accomplished by the use of register-lisp-value. HTH, R for cffi-allegro.lisp: (defun make-shareable-byte-vector (size) "Create a Lisp vector of SIZE bytes that can be passed to WITH-POINTER-TO-VECTOR-DATA." (make-array size :element-type '(unsigned-byte 8))) ;;; this is a crazy whack at trying to make the shared vectors work. ;;; The support functions just make sure that the vector doesn't get ;;; moved around, so we have a stable pointer, and then I think ;;; passing the vector will Just Work\tm. [2006/09/11:rpg] (defmacro with-pointer-to-vector-data ((ptr-var vector) &body body) "Bind PTR-VAR to a foreign pointer to the data in VECTOR." `(unwind-protect (progn (foreign-functions:register-lisp-value ,vector) (let ((,ptr-var ,vector)) ,@body)) (foreign-functions:unregister-lisp-value ,vector)))

[cffi-devel] c-string encoding
by Yaroslav Kavenchuk 13 Sep '06

13 Sep '06

The next release of the sbcl will support the external formats in SB-ALIEN for c-string. What about implement of it in the cffi? There is any code (for the further development)? Thanks! -- WBR, Yaroslav Kavenchuk.

[cffi-devel] Typo in cffi-ecl.lisp %callback
by Daniel Dickison 12 Sep '06

12 Sep '06

There is a trivial mistake in the ECL implementation of %callback -- this patch fixes it. I hope this is the right place to send this. Daniel

[cffi-devel] CLSQL 3.7.1, CFFI and Oracle
by Ricardo Boccato Alves 10 Sep '06

10 Sep '06

Hi, I updated clsql to version 3.7.1 and it is not working (for Oracle) anymore using CFFI (updated from darcs repo today). I tried CLISP versions 1.39 and Allegro 8.0 on windows XP. The problem happens when I try to connect. The error message is: "Symbol "DEF-POINTER-VAR" not found in the CFFI-UFFI-COMPAT package." I think that this macro is missing. I copied the macro def-pointer-var from uffi's objects.lisp to uffi-compat.lisp... ;;; Define a special variable, like DEFVAR, that will be initialized ;;; to a pointer which may need to be reset when a saved image is ;;; loaded. This is needed for OpenMCL, which sets pointers to "dead ;;; macptrs" when a saved image is loaded. ;; This may possibly be needed for sbcl's SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE (defmacro def-pointer-var (name value &optional doc) #-openmcl `(defvar ,name ,value ,@(if doc (list doc))) #+openmcl `(ccl::defloadvar ,name ,value ,doc)) ..and added #:def-pointer-var to cffi-user-compat's export symbols. Now it seems to work buy I am not sure it is the best solution. []s, Ricardo Boccato Alves.
