Hello, If you like eclipse and would like to see where clojuredev (eclipse plugin) is right now, you can give a quick look at the current state of clojuredev by trying to immediately install it via the update site link : http://clojure-dev.googlecode.com/svn/updatesite/ Still not ready for

I have had similar problems with enclojure. But having gone through similar IDE pain working in Ruby on Rails, the Netbeans support ended up being way ahead of most IDEs, so I have hopes that enclojure will get there in time. (My biggest annoyance? The fact that you can't open existing code as

Incidentally, if you want a language with an editor built in, why not look at Smalltalk? I vaguely recall that was a big part of the original language concept. I haven't ever played with it myself, but the most popular current flavour seems to be Squeak: http://www.squeak.org/ Smalltalk

I might look at the JEdit plugin though - JEdit is nice, for simple editing, which might be good enough for me for now. I similarly haven't had time to relearn emacs and have used jedit quite sucessfully with jedit-mode. I keep one or more terminal window tabs open each with a REPL launched with

After talking to Jeffrey Chu, it seems like what is actually happening is possibly fairly obvious (in retrospect) - the java process runs out of heap space, and there's not even enough memory to keep swank- clojure working properly. Jeffrey tried some examples with just a plain REPL (without

i wondered about this when I was asking about eclipse analogies. The vm that runs a program that you are writing should have nothing to do with the vm your editor is using. Maybe there should be some way for the actual running program to be in one VM, and then the REPL communicates to it via

Yeah, I'm not really sure how I think the problem would be ideally solved. It would just be nice for an interactive programming environment to be able to recover from all exceptions that happen at a higher level than the VM itself. On Jan 10, 12:20 pm, Christian Vest Hansen karmazi...@gmail.com

thanks for the encouragement. As for eclipse, I just don't get the same feeling. I love the cntl- space and cntl-\ things that stub out your code (not just for dot completion). . . complete with cells for variables that repeat in the template (yeah they probably took this from emacs, but I can

exactly. . . .but I bet a lot of people would just reply that this is not possible to address since the REPL is the one and only vm. Disclaimer, I'm only guessing at that, too. I don't understand any of this, yet. But if that's the case, fix that. Have the REPL send messages to the vm that's

seems like enclosjure addresses a bunch of my problems/questions. It also seems to work like we wanted SLIME to work, more or less . . .where you attach to the vm that's used for execution . . . only you attach to the REPL, I think, which still accomplishes the goal of keeping the editor

SLIME: trouble with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError

2009-01-08 Thread Paul Mooser
I was playing around earlier while following Mark Engelberg's blog post, and I found that to my surprise, when I exhaust the heap (java.lang.OutOfMemoryError), it basically fails to pop up the window that gives me the exception (where you can normally abort or throw the cause), and the REPL
