[iterate-devel] moving towards 1.5

Hi, I'm (very) slowly preparing iterate 1.5. Changes will be: o version number o iterate.lisp will contain parts from ChangeLog file in header o Attila Lendvai's first-*-p Adding new exports to the ITERATE package is reason enough to bump the version number! More exports can cause more conflicts with software using the package. o my unification of clause specifiers for display-iterate-clauses, remove-clause and defmacro-clause (lost last year in HD crash, I still need to rewrite that simple code). Other suggestions welcome. I'd like to see + nice snippets or explanation in the manual Regards, Jörg Höhle.

[iterate-devel] iterate-latest.tar.gz lacking subdirectory

Just a quick bug report. The distribution tarball: http://common-lisp.net/project/iterate/releases/iterate-current.tar.gz does not extract into a subdirectory. Other than being annoying (:)), it also breaks ASDF-INSTALL.

Hi, >> The user API looks ok, however the way you change >add-binding removes safety checks: several uses must have the >same default initialization and type, etc. This could cause >future extensions to break. >I don't really see what you mean here (newbie warning repeated :) > >I modified add-binding to accept an optional keyword param, Add-binding was previously used only via make-binding-internal. Your patch bypasses all the checks that the make-* functions do, and the functionality they provide. Is that clearer? >Maybe a make-shared-binding is what's missing? Indeed something seems missing, e.g. "create only if not existing already, but I don't know the name of the possibly existing binding". >- attila >(alias 101 on irc &no 'its not lisp code :) I was introduced to IRC in the late eighties but never felt comfortable with it: Too many concurrent discussions, despite threading GUI clients, and lots of bots & kicking. I very much prefer usenet news. Regards, Jörg Höhle.
