[mcclim-devel] question about behavior of describe
by rpgoldman＠sift.info 05 Apr '05

05 Apr '05

In the old days, I was able to click on an object that I had displayed in a McCLIM application frame and describe it (using "describe presentation"?). Now this isn't available any more. Now when I use the right mouse menu, I see "Describe," but I have not been able to persuade it to describe the things I have presented. For that matter, it doesn't really do anything even on numbers. I realize that this is probably a very dumb question, but is there some primer somewhere on how to make this do something nice with my presentations? Thanks, R

[mcclim-devel] demos problem
by George Tourtellot 04 Apr '05

04 Apr '05

Hello, I'm just starting out with McCLIM. I have CMUCL 19a installed, and ASDF installed, and have followed instructions (using ASDF commands) in file INSTALL.CMU. All seems to be working properly until I actually try running a demo. For example, I do/get: ------------------- (clim-demo::run-test 'goatee::goatee-test) Type-error in KERNEL::OBJECT-NOT-TYPE-ERROR-HANDLER: NIL is not of type (MOD 536870911) Error flushed ... (menutest::menutest) Type-error in KERNEL::OBJECT-NOT-TYPE-ERROR-HANDLER: NIL is not of type (MOD 536870911) Error flushed ... ------------------ do you know why this happens? how can I get demos to work? thanks a lot, George __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

[mcclim-devel] How to open a frame opened with OPEN-WINDOW-STREAM
by Paolo Amoroso 03 Apr '05

03 Apr '05

I would like to simulate a modal dialog, contained in its own window, via an ACCEPTING-VALUES inside a frame opened with OPEN-WINDOW-STREAM. I use code like this: (in-package :clim-user) (define-application-frame window-stream () () (:menu-bar t) (:panes (commands :interactor)) (:layouts (default commands))) (defun show-dialog (stream) (let (integer string) (restart-case (accepting-values (stream) (setq integer (accept 'integer :stream stream :prompt "Gimme an integer ")) (terpri stream) (setq string (accept 'string :stream stream :prompt "Gimme a string ")) (terpri stream)) (abort () nil)) (values integer string))) (define-window-stream-command (com-dialog :menu t :name t) () (let ((stream (open-window-stream))) (unwind-protect (multiple-value-bind (integer string) (show-dialog stream) (format t "~&You entered ~D and ~A~%" integer string)) (when (open-stream-p stream) (frame-exit (pane-frame stream)) (close stream))))) (define-window-stream-command (com-quit :menu t :name t) () (frame-exit *application-frame*)) This mostly works, but the CLIM frame opened with OPEN-WINDOW-STREAM is not closed. I tried using only CLOSE in COM-DIALOG, but without success. How can I close that window? Paolo -- Lisp Propulsion Laboratory log - http://www.paoloamoroso.it/log

[mcclim-devel] A tough day for me and McCLIM
by rpgoldman＠sift.info 03 Apr '05

03 Apr '05

I was just testing out the inspector, and was able to reliably cause it to blow up. CL-USER(168): (clouseau:inspector *taems-model* :new-process t) #<MULTIPROCESSING:PROCESS Inspector Clouseau: #<TAEMS-MODEL @ #x72023142> @ #x72f7cd42> ...crashes with the followign error: Error: Attempt to access the plist field of #<TAEMS-MODEL @ #x72023142> which is not a symbol. [condition type: SIMPLE-ERROR] Restart actions (select using :continue): 0: Return to application command loop 1: Abort entirely from this process. [Current process: Inspector Clouseau: *TAEMS-MODEL*] [1] CL-USER(1): CL-USER(169): (clouseau:inspector '*taems-model* :new-process t) #<MULTIPROCESSING:PROCESS Inspector Clouseau: *TAEMS-MODEL* @ #x728a4da2> This works ok (presumably because it's a symbol it has a property list?), but when I click on the value cell of the *taems-model* variable, Clouseau blows up with the same error. The proximate cause seems to be PRINT-DOCUMENTATION, which pulls the documentation and then tries to print it, as can be seen in this error: CL-USER(171): (documentation *taems-model* t) Error: Attempt to access the plist field of #<TAEMS-MODEL @ #x72023142> which is not a symbol. [condition type: SIMPLE-ERROR] Restart actions (select using :continue): 0: Return to Top Level (an "abort" restart). 1: Abort entirely from this process. Does this mean that ACL is not doing the Right Thing with the documentation function? Or is CLOUSEAU wrong to assume that everything will have documentation? Seems like documentation might not be defined on objects, if I read the CLHS correctly. The following change to PRINT-DOCUMENTATION seems to fix my problem. Not sure how right it is, though. (defun print-documentation (object pane) "Print OBJECT's documentation, if any, to PANE" (when (catch 'no-docs (handler-bind ((warning #'muffle-warning) (error #'(lambda (c) (declare (ignore c)) (throw 'no-docs nil)))) (documentation object t))) (with-heading-style (pane) (format pane "~&Documentation: ")) (princ (documentation object t) pane)))

Hi. Thanks for all the help. It turns out that Brian's suggestion to modify mcclim.asd takes care of getting rid of clx. Boris.

[mcclim-devel] Better defaults for CLX backend
by Christophe Rhodes 02 Apr '05

02 Apr '05

Hi, Attached are a diff and a new file to implement better defaults for the clx server path: parsing $DISPLAY as a Unix user might expect. Behaviour should be unchanged in the case that the $DISPLAY environment variable is unreadable. The immediate effect of this patch is that clim over ssh will work. That said, I have completely failed to test this patch even to the point of compiling it, as locally both my sbcl and my clx are broken. If someone could test this and report back (or commit it themselves), that would be good. Cheers, Christophe

[mcclim-devel] A question re. (setf bounding-rectangle-m...) methods
by Aleksandar Bakic 02 Apr '05

02 Apr '05

Hi, I am trying to get Scigraph to work with CMUCL. So far I found what I believe is a CMUCL 0305 bug: the third/last multiple-value-setq in function device-draw-line in scigraph/draw.lisp exercises incorrect compilation of the function. I replaced it with an equivalent multiple-value-bind and that fixed the problem. (Both versions of the function worked when interpreted.) Perhaps someone wants to take a look; I'll post to cmucl-devel if I do not get any feedback. Then I encountered a similar problem with (setf bounding-rectangle-min-x) and friends in the same file. The error below is confusing (it occurs when I play with zoom in/zoom out), but I noticed that the compiler complains about missing setf methods when I recompiled the file. Then I looked at regions.lisp and the spec, and I could not find the setf methods implemented or documented. Again, the error is not raised by CMUCL 0305 when I the code in scigraph/draw.lisp is interpreted. Any suggestions are welcome.

[mcclim-devel] problem with format-graph-from-roots, ACL 6.2
by rpgoldman＠sift.info 01 Apr '05

01 Apr '05

I took some code invoking format-graph-from-roots from before the mothering release and was trying to run it, and got a crash. I traced fairly far down the stack and found something anomalous that I was hoping someone could help me with. In the course of drawing one of my graph-nodes, I get to this point in the stack: [1c] GRAPH-MDP(108): :fr ((METHOD INVOKE-WITH-DRAWING-OPTIONS (SHEET T)) #<APPLICATION-PANE APP @ #x72139792> #<Closure (FLET DRAW-TAEMS-NODE #:G7069) @ #xbfff547a> :INK #.+FOREGROUND-INK+ :TEXT-STYLE #<STANDARD-TEXT-STYLE :FIX :ROMAN :NORMAL>) Now what's odd in that is that I seem to be using the method for the case where the first parameter is of unrestricted type (T). But there is ANOTHER (better?) definition for the case where the first argument is a SHEET. As far as I can tell, the second argument IS a sheet: [1c] GRAPH-MDP(111): (setf foo (second *)) #<APPLICATION-PANE APP @ #x72139792> [1c] GRAPH-MDP(112): (clim::sheetp foo) T [1c] GRAPH-MDP(113): (typep foo 'clim::sheet) T I think the upshot of this is that the extra arguments (the drawing options) are tossed away, instead of being passed on to the closure. At the end of the day, this means that we try to call invoke-with-sheet-medium-bound with the arguments: CLOSURE NIL CLIM-CLX::CLX-MEDIUM whereas that generic function seems to expect CLOSURE MEDIUM-OR-NIL SHEET Thanks, R

[mcclim-devel] sb-bsd-sockets
by Boris Tschirschwitz 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

Hi. I am trying to use McCLIM with openmcl. When compiling the beagle backend I get the error message that sb-bsd-sockets can't be found, apparently clx depends on it and mcclim depends on clx, even with beagle. Making sb-bsd-sockets from sbcl-contrib known to asdf helps until sb-bsd-sockets wants sb-grovel and eventually sb-ext. This one I can't find on sbcl. Am I really supposed to use all these SBCL packages? If so, where do I get the sb-ext? Thanks, Boris.
