[slime-devel] slime-buffer-package not getting set in *slime-repl*

I noticed that the function completions while in a package in *slime-repl* were not correct. It seems that slime-find-buffer-package does not work for the repl. Looks like the regex wants it at the beginning of the line. Now sync-package-and-default-directory works in the repl because it calls swank:set-package with NIL which returns the current package. I changed sync-package-and-default-directory to be (defun slime-sync-package-and-default-directory () (interactive) (let ((package (slime-eval `(swank:set-package ,(slime-find-buffer-package)))) (directory (slime-eval `(swank:set-default-directory ,(expand-file-name default-directory))))) (setq slime-buffer-package package) ;;; <----- added this line (message "package: %s default-directory: %s" package directory))) Which works for my purposes but may not be the best way. Thanks, William Halliburton

Well spotted. In fact, we already keep track of which package the repl is supposed to use in `slime-lisp-package' - this is how we generate the prompt. So I changed (slime-buffer-package) to return this value for slime-repl-mode buffers, i.e. *slime-repl*. Cheers, Luke
