killing threads in a infinite loop is like killing any other thread. slime-list-threads (C-c C-x t) then arrow up and down to your (un)favorite thread of choice, then press "k".
now I'm confused. I typed the following in a buffer named foo.lisp:
(defun endless () (endless))
this, under certain compiler optimizations, will overflow the stack.
(endless)
After the defun, I did C-c C-c and after the (endless) C-x C-e. CPU load goes to 100% as expected, but C-c C-x t only shows
1: Initial Run
and no other threads. Superior lisp is Cmucl in my case. What implementation are you using?
you didn't create a new thread here. you've sent your only thread into an infinite loop (whcih isn't a great idea). try something like this: (mp::startup-idle-and-top-level-loops) ; not need if you're running under slime (mp:make-process (lambda () (loop)) :name "kill me now") -- -Marco Ring the bells that still can ring.
