Hi All,
CL-STORE 0.6 has been uploaded to cl.net and can be asdf-installed
or downloaded from <http://common-lisp.net/project/cl-store/files/cl-store_0.6.tgz>.
Noteworthy Changes
-------------------
* Support has been added for the new CLISP releases which support the MOP.
* Bug fix on storing (find-class 'hash-table)
* Symbols are now checked for eq-uality when storing (see test gensym.2).
* restore-error and store-error now have error as a superclass
* String serialisation tries to keep the upgraded-array-element-type.
* Extremely long proper and dotted lists can now be restored, circular lists
are still fairly restricted with regards to size (Reported by Alain Picard).
* Fixed type specifications for the backend class (Reported by Kilian Sprotte).
* *stored-values* and *restored-values* are no longer bound when circularity
checking is inhibited.
* When circularity checking is inhibited an error will be signalled when
trying to restore circular objects.
* Stored objects now have a new magic number but v0.5 files will/should still
be restorable.
