Help on unit test
by Fabrizio Fabbri 30 Jan '16

30 Jan '16

Hi all, I make ECL compile with Win64 cl compiler, and so far it does not work bad. I want to run the unit test, and I was able to do it manually with some failure but I'm not 100% sure that I run those in the right way. It there some instruction that I can follow or can you tell me wich is the proper way to run those unit test. p.S. The buil system on windows need some makeup (on windows) and I was was wondering that instead of using nmake I can fixup autoconf to work on msys2 on windows platform with native cl compiler. Cheers f.

Re: [Ecls-list] threading failures

Hello, that's probably my fault, sorry. I've migrated bugs manually and probably missed this one (I remember this bug! but can't find anywhere). I'm adding it to regression tests in repository, thanks! Yes, old reports are unfortunately lost. As a sienote, please use ecl-devel(a)common-lisp.net mailing list – I'm closing the old one today. You can subscribe here https://mailman.common-lisp.net/listinfo/ecl-devel . All archives before 2015-08-10 are imported to the new one and gmane stream is redirected (if you use it).

ELS'16 - 9th European Lisp Symposium Department of Computer Science AGH University of Science and Technology Kraków, Poland May 9-10, 2016 In cooperation with: ACM SIGPLAN Sponsored by EPITA, Franz Inc., LispWorks Ltd. and Dept. of Computer Science AGH UST http://www.european-lisp-symposium.org/ Recent news: - Submission deadline in less than a month! - 3nd invited speaker announced: Stephan Karpinski on Julia: to Lisp or Not to Lisp? The purpose of the European Lisp Symposium is to provide a forum for the discussion and dissemination of all aspects of design, implementation and application of any of the Lisp and Lisp-inspired dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp, AutoLisp, ISLISP, Dylan, Clojure, ACL2, ECMAScript, Racket, SKILL, Hop and so on. We encourage everyone interested in Lisp to participate. The 9th European Lisp Symposium invites high quality papers about novel research results, insights and lessons learned from practical applications and educational perspectives. We also encourage submissions about known ideas as long as they are presented in a new setting and/or in a highly elegant way. Topics include but are not limited to: - Context-, aspect-, domain-oriented and generative programming - Macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches - Language design and implementation - Language integration, inter-operation and deployment - Development methodologies, support and environments - Educational approaches and perspectives - Experience reports and case studies We invite submissions in the following forms: Papers: Technical papers of up to 8 pages that describe original results or explain known ideas in new and elegant ways. Demonstrations: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for demonstrations of tools, libraries, and applications. Tutorials: Abstracts of up to 4 pages for in-depth presentations about topics of special interest for at least 90 minutes and up to 180 minutes. The symposium will also provide slots for lightning talks, to be registered on-site every day. All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines and include ACM classification categories and terms. For more information on the submission guidelines and the ACM keywords, see: http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates and http://www.acm.org/about/class/1998.

cl-redis problems
by Diogo Franco 11 Jan '16

11 Jan '16

Hi, I've been using cl-redis with ecl without problems, but recently i have some trouble when installing on new systems. rutil is a dependency installed by quicklisp when doing quickload on cl-redis, and i've been getting: "There is no method on the generic function PRINT-OBJECT that agrees on qualifiers NIL and specializers (HASH-TABLE T)" This is the ecl that's installed via apt-get, ecl-13.5.1. I did notice that sbcl finds the method correctly when doing "(find-method #'print-object nil '(hash-table t))", while ecl also gives the error above. Any idea on how to further investigate this? Thanks in advance!

How to compile executable with external dependencies
by Alexander Artemenko 05 Jan '16

Hi! Is there a way to compile a lisp programm which uses something like Drakma? Or ECL is only able to compile separate lisp files one by one? -- Alexander Artemenko (a.k.a. Svetlyak 40wt) Blog: http://dev.svetlyak.ru Photos: http://svetlyak.ru Jabber: svetlyak.40wt(a)gmail.com

Displaying lisp errors while running with save_eval
by Diogo Franco 08 Dec '15

08 Dec '15

Hi all, Uncaught error conditions in lisp code don't display in *standard-output* for me, when ecl is running embedded in c (i presume the reason is that i'm calling the lisp functions using save_eval()). My workflow on the shell while developing is then to do ctrl-c which drops me to the REPL, and to manually execute the functions, which will print the error. I'm no expert on the inner workings of ecl, so forgive me if this is a dumb question, but is there some way to get the errors in *standard-output* even when using save_eval()? Thanks in advance, Diogo Franco

Re: Inspecting intermediate C files

Hi, I'm not sure if I miss something, but this mail seems to be sent to the ecl-devel-owner(a)common-lisp.net . Correct ML address is ecl-devel(a)common-lisp.net . I'm fast forwarding the mail there.

To prevent ECL from deleting these intermediate files you need to set special variable c::*delete-files* to nil. (setf c::*delete-files* nil) Intermediate files are *.c, *.h and *.data . The last one contains some untranslatable expressions (rare occasion – if you work with infinities for instance) and debugging/reflection information (like the path to the source file). This problem has been tacled by Earl Ducaine here: https://github.com/earl-ducaine/stupid-ecl-tricks-1 . > > Can you help me figure out how to generate them?

I'm now in-process of revising manual and rewriting it into texi sources. I'll keep in mind to document this. It would be great if you could file an issue on gitlab.com/embeddable-common-lisp/ecl/issues (with the label "documentation"). Thanks! > > Thanks!

iolib and close
by Alessandro Serra 26 Nov '15

26 Nov '15

Dear all, compiling "iolib-tests" I received the following error: #<IPv4 datagram socket, closed 00000000050f3660> is not of type STREAM. [Condition of type TYPE-ERROR] I have seen that in "clos/streams.lsp" the following method is defined: (defmethod close ((stream t) &key abort) (declare (ignore abort)) (bug-or-error stream 'close)) Removing the method above with: (remove-method #'gray:close (find-method #'gray:close '() '(t))) I was able to compile iolib-tests and run the tests. Did 71 checks. Pass: 59 (83%) Skip: 0 ( 0%) Fail: 12 (16%) Regards, Alessandro

ffi:defcallback with cxx
by hiro hiro 14 Nov '15

Hello, I compiled ecl16.0.0 with option "--with-cxx". Then I use ffi:defcallback function like (ffi:defcallback yyyy :void () ..... ) then compile-file (compile-file "xxxxx.lisp" :c-file "xxxxx.cpp" :system-p t) I received error message as follows (freebsd10.1 clang++) xxxxx.cpp:162:8: error: no matching function for call to 'ecl_make_foreign_data' T0 = ecl_make_foreign_data(ECL_SYM("POINTER-VOID",1381),0,ecl_callback_0) I try as follows in src/cmp/cmpcbk.lsp & src/new-cmp/cmpc-cbk.lsp line 44 from: ,(format nil "ecl_make_foreign_data(@':pointer-void,0,~a)" c-name) to: ,(format nil "ecl_make_foreign_data(@':pointer-void,0,(void*)~a)" c-name) after that, I did not receive error message and ffi:callback work fine. Would you let me know what your thoughts are on this matter. hirohiro447

Dear all, for the last few weeks I was working on the ECL Android integration. I've managed to create a basic app which is swank-capable. More info here: https://common-lisp.net/project/ecl/ I'll appreciate all the feedback :) Regards, Daniel -- Daniel Kochmański | Poznań, Poland ;; aka jackdaniel "Be the change that you wish to see in the world." - Mahatma Gandhi
