Re: [slime-devel] swank-create-server (round II)

imho swank-create-server is much more convient if it returns the port number it has opened. 4 line patch follows. [...]

(defun create-swank-server (&optional (port 4005) (background *swank-in-background*)) - (setup-server port #'simple-announce-function background)) + (let ((real-port nil)) + (setup-server port + (lambda (port) + (setf real-port port)) + background) + real-port))

There is a race condition if the server is executed in a separate thread. I added an announce-fn argument, until we know how to best handle this situation.

p.s. - am i the only one actually using create-swank-server?

Apparently :-) Helmut.
