Hello, >From commit f5fafaa on Feb. 11, "Remove old GCL specific code",
https://github.com/fricas/fricas/commit/f5fafaa29785fb0fd83bd974096e4e316762f31b src/interp/utils.lisp was modified as this: 319-326 ============================================== (setq |$formattedOutputStream| (|mkOutputConsoleStream|)) (fricas-init) - #+(or :GCL :poplog) + #+:poplog (|spad|) - #-(or :GCL :poplog) + #-:poplog (let ((*debugger-hook* (lambda (condition previous-handler) (spad-system-error-handler condition)) (setq |$texOutputStream| (|mkOutputConsoleStream|)) ============================================== and after, in this code branch (handler-bind ...) is called with (|spad|). The problem I would like to highlight here is that, since this change, GCL is no longer able to compile this file. Namely, the CLtL1 image that, by default GCL use, does not support (handle-bind ...) and probably more ((handle-case ..) also for example). So to have this routine defined you have to switch to the ANSI image. For that, a GCL_ANSI environnent variable needs to be set to something. On Debian-like distributions, at least, this is necessary. See below an excerpt of the README.Debian file. So I would suggest to explain this in the INSTALL.rst file or do something about that. By the way, I have 'make check'ed FriCAS against SBCL, GNU Common Lisp, CLISP, ECL and no problem occurs. For CMU Common Lisp, I need more time, I have used a version with a modified startup and I do not know for now, it was late. For Clozure CL some issues remain but integration was improved and it remains only one issue.Thanks for this! Greg ========================================== The Debian package gcl ---------------------- GCL is one of the oldest free common lisp systems still in use. Several production systems have used it for over a decade. The common lisp standard in effect when GCL was first released is known as "Common Lisp, the Language" (CLtL1) after a book by Steele of the same name providing this specification. Subsequently, a much expanded standard was adopted by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), which is still considered the definitive common lisp language specification to this day. Debian GCL now installs both the small 'traditional' lisp image designed to conform to a pre-ANSI Lisp standard, and an experimental ANSI image. Please note that ANSI support in GCL is still preliminary. On an ansi-test suite written by a GCL developer, GCL fails on a little under 3 percent of the tests. Details can be found in /usr/share/doc/gcl/test_results.gz. To toggle the use of the ANSI image, set the environment variable GCL_ANSI to any non-empty string. ================================================ I think the original modification comes from: 2008-01-21 Waldek Hebisch <hebi...@math.uni.wroc.pl> Martin Rubey <martin.ru...@univie.ac.at> * src/interp/util.lisp: Attach 'spad-system-error-handler' to *debugger-hook* (needed to trap Ctrl-C in sbcl). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
