Hi,
Quoting Helmut Eller (heller@common-lisp.net):
There might be something in your ~/.swank.lisp.
thank you, that was it. I'm using (setf swank:*globally-redirect-io* t) and that causes trouble in combination with the recent SWANK-LOADER::INIT changes.
Dumping a core file with *globally-redirect-io* worked before the new SWANK-LOADER::INIT was introduced, and it still worked for the brief time period where swank.asd was still unchanged.
The problem occurs since rev 1.6 of swank.asd, which runs SWANK-LOADER::INIT during compilation, and hence before saving the core file.
Reverting rev 1.6 fixes things for me. Not sure what the -right- solution is though.
Hmm... Calling swank::revert-global-io-redirection before saving the core should work. Having separate compile, load, and init operations would probably be TRT. I don't know if ASDF supports that directly.
Helmut.
