Hello,
I spent a few hours today trying to install the cl-cffi-gtk package
from quicklisp to ECL running on my Windows 11 laptop. I've downloaded the
binaries from gtk3 (current release) to a directory on my laptop. I then
used quickload to load the gtk bindings. The installation failed when cffi
could not locate the .dll libraries. I've attempted to add the .dll
directory to my PATH variable and by pushing the directory onto
cffi:*foreign-library-directories*. Nothing I have done so far works. Does
ECL/cffi have a way to debug what is happening?
When I attempt to use cffi:load-foreign-library to load one of the
.dlls manually, I get a message indicating that I need ecl's dffi module and
that I should use ffi:load-foreign-library. When I use that manually, it
does return with nil. :dlopen is defined in *features*. Thoughts?
Thanks,
Dave
