From Greg Bennett, running 64bit Mint 18.2 and sbcl 1.4.0 [should fix that!]


I am trying to port a project using mcclim as the graphics machine.

Using code from CLIM User Guide V2.2.2 P19:

<START of CODE>

(in-package :clim-user)

(define-application-frame test ()
  ()
  (:panes
   (display :application))
  (:layouts
   (default display)))

(define-test-command (com-quit :menu t) ()
  (frame-exit *application-frame*))

(defvar *test-frame* nil)

(defun test ()
  (flet ((run ()
          (let ((frame (make-application-frame 'test)))
             (setq *test-frame* frame) (run-frame-top-level frame))))
   (sb-thread::make-thread #'run :name "test")
   *test-frame*))

<END of CODE>

and then (test), I can get a mcclim window in which I can draw while still having the sbcl
listener alive.

I'd like to learn how to create other instances of application frames on the same thread
[named "test" in this case] Is it as simple as invoking clim:run-frame-toplevel again, for
instance ?

If there are pointers to mcclim's handling of threads, I'd be happy to learn of them.

Thanks for advice and assistance,
Cheers /GB
