Hello,
I have been having trouble with a bug that seems
to only occur when running from SLIME, as opposed to the REPL at a CMD
prompt. Basically, when I try to run a windowed application, it will
hang when opening the window. I do not have any idea why. For example,
the following sequence will hang:
(ql:quickload "sdl2-examples")
(sdl2-examples:basic-test)
When
trying to debug it further, I found an odd workaround, though. I
noticed CCL had some basic win32 samples. In trying to isolate the
issue, I ran the following:
(defun hack-fix-slime-window ()
(load "c:/Users/MickBeaver/private/software_packages/ccl/examples/mswin.lisp")
(make-simple-ms-window))
That
opens a basic win32 window. Afterward, my other windowed applications
will start working as expected. So strange! I do not have any issues
running from the CMD prompt REPL, though. According to CCL's mswin.lisp,
I do not believe I was the first person to encounter this:
