[slime-devel] non-Latin1 character causes slime to disconnect

28 Sep 2005

      Quick way to cause problems:

At the repl, do:
(code-char 65533)

Swank will disconnect.

This is an unhandled condition regarding an external format encoding
error.

Ocurred with SBCL 0.9.4.65 and 09/28/2005 at 9:20 PM's slime CVS.

The quick response is "don't do that" - but the character was ocurring
in (I think) a backtrace from an external format error.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Alan
