Hello,

I am wondering about the current status of mcclim on windows. I cannot myself get it to display anything, after trying a number of approaches.

For X, I am using Xming from sourceforge. I can run the demodemo from a linux box and display it on the windows box, so I think X is OK.

First try was with sbcl-1.0.29, clx-0.73, flexichain_1.5.1, spatial-trees-0.2 and mcclim from CVS. When I try the demodemo, nothing gets displayed, and if I try to interrupt sbcl it just dies. If I chose to exit Xming, the confirmation box reports that 1 client is attached - so I guess something is happening. I have tried this from emacs/slime and in raw sbcl.

Second try was with lispbox from "Practical Common Lisp", which is Clisp-2.37 with libs as above. Again, nothing is displayed, though lisp is running at 100% of the CPU. When I interrupt lisp, I can see from the stack frames that the event loop is running, but Xming reports no clients attached.

Third try was with clisp-2.47, the small windows binary from sourceforge (without the new-clx I think). Results were the same as for 2.37.

I also tried all the above with clx-0.71, since that is what I have on my linux box (and which is working there), but results were the same.

I also tried compiling the source for clisp-2.47 (to make sure new-clx isn't in it), but I was unable to do that in mingw.

I can't really capture any other clues, and so I'm stuck.

Does anyone have any info, or request for more from me?

BR,

/Patrik.
