[slime-devel] Bug in arglist display for unknown functions.
by Ivan Boldyrev 13 Mar '04

13 Mar '04

When I type program text with Slime, it tries to display function type. But when it such symbol is not created yet in lisp image, Slime displays error message in minibuffer: Error in function SWANK::FIND-SYMBOL-OR-LOSE: Unknown symbol: "bla-bla-bla" [in #<The COMMON-LISP-USER package>]) If symbol exists, but is not function, error message is different: (INTEGER -- Error in KERNEL:%COERCE-TO-FUNCTION: the function INTEGER is undefined.) (This message was generated when I was editing ECASE construct). Same error appears when I type in Slime REPL in fresh Lisp. I use Emacs 21.3.1, CMU Common Lisp CVS snapshot 2003-12. I fetch Slime each night from CVS at 21:30 GMT (I know about special tag for stable versions, but I want to use unstable :). The bug appeared two or three days ago. I expected such a bug to be noticed by developers soon, but it was not fixed in two or three days... :( -- Ivan Boldyrev "Assembly of Japanese bicycle require great peace of mind."

[slime-devel] [PATCH] slime profiling - little fix
by Pawel Ostrowski 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

Hello, When I was playing with slime profiling interface I encountered some errors: - CMUCL 18e complained about (profiled-functions, profile-report, profile-reset, unprofile-all, profile-package) symbols not being exported by swank package when I tried entries from slime/profiling menu. I just added missing exports to swank.lisp and it works fine, however I do not know slime code well so it may be not the best solution. I tried this with CLISP 2.32 and my fix helps too. Without the fix i get the following errors: error in process filter: cond: No frame at point error in process filter: No frame at point - (slime-unprofile-all) had no effect on CMUCL 18e because it called (profile:unprofile) which is a macro. I replaced it with (eval '(profile:unprofile)) and now it works fine. -- Pasza pasza (at) zodiac.mimuw.edu.pl

[slime-devel] (string= "(function . (cons))" "(function cons)") ==> nil
by Michael Livshin 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

the latest Slime (both HEAD & FAIRLY-STABLE) does not load for me due to failed asserts that check the equality cited in the subject. apparently #'pprint-logical-block in CMUCL 18e does not work the way swank.lisp thinks it works. or something. I've worked around this by making #'test-print-arglist be: (defun test-print-arglist (list string) (equal (read-from-string (print-arglist-to-string list)) (read-from-string string))) perhaps it will break something; so far it does not. cheers, --m -- Well, I wish you'd just tell me rather than trying to engage my enthusiasm, because I haven't got one.

[slime-devel] Some new functions
by Bill_Clementson＠peoplesoft.com 10 Mar '04

10 Mar '04

I am enclosing some functions that I use quite a bit in my Lisp programming. They might be useful to include in SLIME. The first 2 are based on functions originally written by Paul Foley. If you want to include them, I would suggest binding insert-balanced-comments to "C-c C-;" and remove-balanced-comments to "C-c C-:". The third function uses font-lock to visually transform the word "lambda" to the Greek lambda character. Someone who wants to use this function would typically add it in for the specific mode. For example: (add-hook 'lisp-mode-hook (lambda () (slime-mode t) (pretty-lambdas))) Here are the 3 functions: (defun insert-balanced-comments (arg) "Insert a set of balanced comments around the s-expression containing the point. If this command is invoked repeatedly (without any other command occurring between invocations), the comment progressively moves outward over enclosing expressions. If invoked with a positive prefix argument, the s-expression arg expressions out is enclosed in a set of balanced comments." (interactive "*p") (save-excursion (when (eq last-command this-command) (when (search-backward "#|" nil t) (save-excursion (delete-char 2) (while (and (< (point) (point-max)) (not (looking-at " *|#"))) (forward-sexp)) (replace-match "")))) (while (> arg 0) (backward-char 1) (cond ((looking-at ")") (incf arg)) ((looking-at "(") (decf arg)))) (insert "#|") (forward-sexp) (insert "|#"))) (defun remove-balanced-comments () "Remove a set of balanced comments enclosing point." (interactive "*") (save-excursion (when (search-backward "#|" nil t) (delete-char 2) (while (and (< (point) (point-max)) (not (looking-at " *|#"))) (forward-sexp)) (replace-match "")))) (defun pretty-lambdas () (font-lock-add-keywords nil `(("(\\(lambda\\>\\)" (0 (progn (compose-region (match-beginning 1) (match-end 1) ,(make-char 'greek-iso8859-7 107)) nil))))))

[slime-devel] Package split
by Helmut Eller 09 Mar '04

09 Mar '04

I just merged my package-split branch into the main trunk. We have now a new package SWANK-BACKEND. It is basically stand-alone and doesn't need the rest of SWANK. Of course, SWANK calls functions in the backend. I moved some functionality like handling of restarts and a lot symbol-to-string conversion to swank.lisp. The load order is now: swank-loader, swank-backend, swank-[cmucl,sbcl...], swank This means, we could define macros in the backend and use them in SWANK. I tested a bit with my usual implementations. I added the necessary changes for OpenMCL, but don't know if they actually work. Feedback welcome. Helmut.
