[slime-devel] "Error in timer" slime-attempt-connection
by Mark H. David 05 Dec '11

05 Dec '11

I keep getting this error in SLIME/emacs/AWS EC2 Anyone familiar with this? If I try again and again, it goes away and all works well until the next time or the time after that. Here's a longer backtrace: Debugger entered: (("Error in timer" slime-attempt-connection (#<process inferior-lisp> nil 2) (file-error "make client process failed" "connection refused" :name "SLIME Lisp" :buffer nil :host "127.0.0.1" :service 57918))) (condition-case data (apply fun args) (error (debug nil ...))) slime-timer-call(slime-attempt-connection #<process inferior-lisp> nil 2) apply(slime-timer-call (slime-attempt-connection #<process inferior-lisp> nil 2)) byte-code(" H H\" " [timer apply 5 6] 4) timer-event-handler([t 20156 46072 822713 0.3 slime-timer-call (slime-attempt-connection #<process inferior-lisp> nil 2) nil])

[slime-devel] slime debugger string length cutoff, bad default and how to control it
by Mark H. David 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

I thought this (setf (cdr (assoc 'swank::*sldb-string-length* swank:*sldb-printer-bindings*)) 5000) would do the to show my all of a 100-long string in SLDB. (I think the cutoff should be much higher by default, by the way.) But when I looked at locals in SLDB, I had a string of length 100 shown with its first 74 characters, followed by two dots (..). (Uh, not to pile on, but wouldn't three dots (...) be normal?) When I evaluated swank::*sldb-string-length* (typed 'e', swank::*sldb-string-length* to the Eval in frame: prompt below), the value was nil. What is going on? My test was (defun foo () (let ((x (make-string 100 :initial-element #\q))) (break "foo") x)) (foo) The debugger showed me foo [Condition of type SIMPLE-CONDITION] Restarts: 0: [CONTINUE] Return from BREAK. 1: [RETRY] Retry SLIME REPL evaluation request. 2: [*ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level. 3: [ABORT-BREAK] Reset this thread 4: [ABORT] Kill this thread Backtrace: 0: (FOO) Locals: X = "qqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqqq..

[slime-devel] Question about Slime & SBCL on Windows
by Scott Turner 29 Nov '11

29 Nov '11

I'm currently using SLIME & SBCL (SBCL 1.0.50.24.mswinmt.876-cad5ed2 -- Kovalenko's Windows port). When I hit C-c C-c to interrupt, my Lisp dies and I have to kill Slime and restart. Am I doing something wrong, or is interrupt just not supported on SBCL? Thanks in advance for any help! -- Scott Turner

[slime-devel] Is there a good way to handle multiple "current directories"?
by Jeffrey Cunningham 21 Nov '11

21 Nov '11

I keep running into to this rather trivial but annoying problem while working in slime. Emacs is running (of course), and god only knows what directory I was in when I started it up days ago. I am often working on more than one project, or I will be looking for some piece of data in a folder other than what Slime considers the "current directory" (which I usually determine by M-x d and looking to see where it's at). Whatever the case, if I want to run a few lines of code that access a different directory than the "current" one, I end up doing various ad hoc things, like figuring out the relative path between where it is and where I want it to be, or just typing out a fully-qualified pathname. Is there a way to do this more easily? I know that if I put something like (defparameter *i-am-here* (make-pathname :name nil :type nil :version nil :defaults (parse-namestring *load-truename*))) in a file located in the directory I'm looking at, that the parameter will be set correctly when the file is loaded. But that begs the question, since I have to know where that file is to load it. What I'd like to be able to do would be something like this: (with-open-file (fs (merge-pathnames "data.file" (directory-of-file-buffer)) :direction :input) ;; do stuff ) How do other people handle this situation? --Jeff
