Re: [racket-dev] cgywin build working? Which line endings?
I would suggest being sure the code you are trying to compile under cygwin, builds under straight Linux first. I tried building Racket under cygwin end of Nov./Dec. unsuccessfully. In #racket they told me I was on my own.So I switched to straight Linux (Ubuntu 10.10) and in the end got just the text version from a development build the end of Dec. to build/work, which was enough for me. From the forums I think the problems with building all of Racket under Linux have been fixed, but I haven't had time nor need to try it out again. Assuming your student gets the Racket cygwin build to work - Please post anything special you have do. I expect to get back to this in Feb. _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
[racket-dev] changing #lang plai to depend on racket rather than scheme?
I went looking for the immutable hash table functions in plai today, and I discovered that since plai is based on #lang scheme rather than #lang racket, you need to use old names in a bunch of places. Just for the heck of it, I went ahead and changed scheme - racket in two places in plai/main.rkt, and... things seem to work fine. However, I don't see a test suite that I could run to check this. 1) Is there a test suite somewhere? The obvious one would be running all of the code in the PLAI textbook. 2) Is there some reason why this change would be a bad idea or cause problems?

There are very small test suites for the core library (datatype and test) in tests/plai 2) Is there some reason why this change would be a bad idea or cause problems? I can't think of anything, because so much of the book's use of library functions is very minimal. I'd go ahead and do it.

Re: [racket-dev] racket-lang down?
its working for me. i just submitted a bug, too. On 01/19/2011 04:44 PM, John Clements wrote: It looks like racket-lang.org is down.
