I am trying to comunicate using named pipes. First create a fifo: mkfifo fromA
On one terminal start: cat < fromA On the second start ecl and try: (setf ofil (open "fromA" :direction :output :if-exists :append)) Apparently ecl hangs in open. The same if I use: (setf ofil (open "fromA" :direction :output :if-exists :overwrite)) or (setf ofil (open "fromA" :direction :output :if-exists :supersede)) Only: (setf ofil (open "fromA" :direction :output)) works. However, the last form is undefined when the file exists, and for example in sbcl it fails. -- Waldek Hebisch hebi...@math.uni.wroc.pl ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ RSA(R) Conference 2012 Mar 27 - Feb 2 Save $400 by Jan. 27 Register now! http://p.sf.net/sfu/rsa-sfdev2dev2 _______________________________________________ Ecls-list mailing list Ecls-list@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ecls-list
