I will try to provide patches.... :)

Okay, here is a first go for lispworks:

diff -ur osicat 2/src/osicat.lisp osicat/src/osicat.lisp --- osicat 2/src/osicat.lisp 2005-09-26 12:58:02.000000000 +0200 +++ osicat/src/osicat.lisp 2007-03-02 14:01:17.000000000 +0100 @@ -153,7 +153,7 @@ (do ((counter 100 (1- counter))) ((zerop counter) (error 'file-error :pathname nil)) - (let* ((name (tmpnam (make-null-pointer 'cstring))) + (let* ((name (tmpnam #+lispworks nil #-lispworks (make-null-pointer 'cstring))) (stream (open (convert-from-cstring name) :direction :io :element-type element-type :external-format external-format

I am not exactly sure, why it works, but it fixes the tests OSICAT-TEST::TEMPORARY-FILE.1 OSICAT-TEST::TEMPORARY-FILE.2 for lispworks.

It remains OSICAT-TEST::CURRENT-DIRECTORY.1, which is more a matter of:

OSICAT 8 > (inspect (truename "/tmp"))

#P"/private/tmp/" is a PATHNAME HOST :UNSPECIFIC DEVICE :UNSPECIFIC DIRECTORY (:ABSOLUTE "private" "tmp") NAME :UNSPECIFIC TYPE :UNSPECIFIC VERSION :UNSPECIFIC

OSICAT 10 > (inspect (current-directory))

#P"/private/tmp/" is a PATHNAME HOST NIL DEVICE NIL DIRECTORY (:ABSOLUTE "private" "tmp") NAME NIL TYPE NIL VERSION NIL

So maybe we can just ignore this?

Cheers, Kilian

PS:

Actually, for testing with lispworks you cannot refer to :rt but only to :rtest, since the :rt nickname is disabled for lispworks on the latest cliki version of RT.

So, I needed to change also:

(of course, this could also be #-lispworks :rt #+lispworks :rtest)
