European Lisp Symposium 2012, Zadar, Croatia, April 29th - May 1st, 2012

Call for Participation.

http://european-lisp-symposium.org

The purpose of the European Lisp Symposium is to provide a forum for
the discussion and dissemination of all aspects of design,
implementation and application of any of the Lisp and Lisp-inspired
dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp, AutoLisp, ISLISP,
Dylan, Clojure, ACL2, ECMAScript, Racket, SKILL, and so on. We
encourage everyone interested in Lisp to participate.


The main theme of the 2012 European Lisp Conference is
"Interoperability: Systems, Libraries, Workflows".  Lisp based and
functional-languages based systems have grown a variety of solutions
to become more and more integrated with the wider world of Information
and Communication Technologies in current use.  There are several
dimensions to the scope of the solutions proposed, ranging from
"embedding" of interpreters in C-based systems, to the development of
abstractions levels that facilitate the expression of complex context
dependent tasks, to the construction of exchange formats handling
libraries, to the construction of theorem-provers for the "Semantic
Web".  The European Lisp Symposium 2012 solicits the submission of
papers with this specific theme in mind, alongside the more
traditional tracks which have appeared in the past editions.

Registration:

Until April 15th the registration fee will be reduced.
Use the form on www.european-lisp-symposium.org to register.

Venue:

Zadar is one of the enchanting cities on the Adriatic coast rich in
history. It still preserves a very old network of narrow and charming
city streets, as well as a Roman forum dating back to the first
century AD. In addition, Zadar region encompasses many natural
beauties, most prominent among them is the Kornati National Park, the
most unusual and indented set of small islands in the Mediterranean
(89 islands, islets and reefs) located only 15 nautical miles south of
Zadar – a visit to Kornati is planned as a part of the conference.


Accomoodation:

Participants are responsible for their own accommodation
arrangements. Reservations should be made directly to the hotels.

When making reservations in hotel Hotel Kolovare, please indicate that
you are with ELS 2012 / University of Zadar and you will get a

"glib-preload" components.  Any suggestions?

Hi,

Clg won't compile with SBCL of a version >= 1.0.35.15.  This is because
SB-KERNEL:TYPE-EXPAND was replaced by SB-EXT:TYPEXPAND in SBCL 1.0.35.15.
Adding the following:

#?+(pkg-config:sbcl>= 1 0 35 15)
(sb-ext:without-package-locks
  (defun type-expand (form)
    (typexpand form)))

somewhere around the type expansion code in clg/gffi/interface.lisp will
get around this problem.  SB-EXT:WITHOUT-PACKAGE-LOCKS is needed because
TYPE-EXPAND is still exported from the SB-KERNEL package for no reason.

Best,

Veler simply said, "I confidently expect my prayer to be answered." When
they met again the merchant had been converted, and, amid tears of
rejoicing, another name was checked off the list. The merchant's name
was Samuel M. Sayford. Mr. Sayford became a secretary in the Young Men's

at Williams College, and pushed him out into Association work. Mr. Ober,
in turn, found John E. Mott in Cornell University, persuaded him to

read a page or two of Cato's _De Re Rustica_ to have this illusion
dispelled. The only things actually alleged to be archaisms are (1) the
use of deponent participles as passives in Sec.Sec. 4, 59, 74, a thing
common enough in Cicero; (2) the occurrence of _quasi_ = _quem ad modum_
in Sec. 71; (3) of _audaciter_ = _audacter_ in Sec. 72; (4) of
_tuerentur_ for _intuerentur_ in Sec. 77; (5) of _neutiquam_ in Sec. 42;
(6) of the nominative of the gerundive governing an accusative case in
Sec. 6. In every instance the notes will supply a refutation of the
allegation. That Cicero should attempt to write in any style but his own
is exceedingly improbable. 5. _Personages._ The conversation is supposed

Hello all members,
I'm trying to build OpenMusic on Fedora10 which is a graphical programming
environment for composers based on CLOS. It requires clg and SBCL v.1x.
I downloaded clg 0.93 and tried to follow instalation instruction.
But unfortunately I can't compile the Alien Function package - here is 
what I get:


[piotr@localhost sbcl-0.8.21-af]$ sbcl --load "system"

This time it's more generic as SBCL complained about a null
tree-view-column as return value, which is handled with a proxy.

Here is a patch for what it is worth:

*** proxy.lisp.~1.10.~	2008-05-06 11:00:51.000000000 +0200
--- proxy.lisp	2009-05-06 13:38:14.000000000 +0200

    (assert-not-inlined type inlined)
    (size-of 'pointer))

There seems to be an inconsistency between the return type for
tree-path arguments and %TREE-PATH-TO-VECTOR.

As I can see from the first line

(defun %tree-path-to-vector (location)
  (unless (null-pointer-p location)
    (let ((indices (%tree-path-get-indices location))
	  (depth (%tree-path-get-depth location)))
      (if (null-pointer-p indices)
	  #()
	(map-c-vector 'vector #'identity indices 'int depth)))))

this function can return NIL when passed a null pointer.
Unfortunately RETURN-TYPE for TREE-PATH returns a '(VECTOR INT *),
which is OK for CMUCL (who is probably ignoring the declaim produced
by DEFBINDING) but makes SBCL angry whenever a GTK function returns a
null pointer.

This patch mends the problem:

Hi Espen,

I updated my clg to the latest CVS version yesterday (4 Mar 2009).
I saved a core file (with EXT:SAVE-LISP) after clg was compiled.
This core file will give an of segmentation violation upon startup.

Here are the steps to generate the error:

  1. In CMUCL (I'm using Snapshot 2008-11 (19E) on a Gentoo Linux machine):
       (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :gtk)
       (ext:save-lisp "clg-core")

  2. In UNIX shell, add the following symlinks:
       ln -s /.../clg/gffi/gffi-alien.so /usr/lib/gffi-alien.so
       ln -s /.../clg/glib/glib-preload.so /usr/lib/glib-preload.so
       ln -s /.../clg/glib/glib-alien.so /usr/lib/glib-alien.so
       ln -s /.../clg/cairo/cairo-alien.so /usr/lib/cairo-alien.so
       ln -s /.../clg/gio/gio-alien.so /usr/lib/gio-alien.so
       ln -s /.../clg/gdk/gdk-alien.so /usr/lib/gdk-alien.so
       ln -s /.../clg/gtk/gtk-alien.so /usr/lib/gtk-alien.so
     where "..." is the path leading to the clg source directory.

  3. At the shell prompt, type 
       lisp -core clg-core
     and get the following:

I Couldn't compile CLG on SBCL 1.0.24. First of all,
SB-ALIEN::SHARED-OBJECT-FILE => SB-ALIEN::SHARED-OBJECT-PATHNAME, 
and some problems with loading GFFI

Greetings,

I have tried using clg on my system (Mac OS X, using emacs and sbcl  
from MacPorts; I have dabbled with cmucl as well and run into similar  
problems). Unfortunately, (require :gtk) always ends up with an error  
like the following:

------ Begin
The function SB-ALIEN::SHARED-OBJECT-FILE is undefined.
    [Condition of type UNDEFINED-FUNCTION]

Restarts:
  0: [RETRY] Retry performing #<ASDF:LOAD-OP NIL {12314441}> on  
#<ASDF::SHARED-OBJECT "gffi-alien" {124A0C71}>.
  1: [ACCEPT] Continue, treating #<ASDF:LOAD-OP NIL {12314441}> on  
#<ASDF::SHARED-OBJECT "gffi-alien" {124A0C71}> as having been  
successful$
  2: [RETRY] Retry SLIME REPL evaluation request.
  3: [ABORT] Return to SLIME's top level.
  4: [ABORT] Exit debugger, returning to top level.

   8: (SB-FASL::LOAD-AS-SOURCE #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "file /Users/

   9: ((FLET SB-FASL::LOAD-STREAM) #<SB-SYS:FD-STREAM for "file /Users/ 
ix/.sbcl/systems/glib.asd" {122C3541}>)
  10: (LOAD #P"/Users/ix/.sbcl/systems/glib.asd")[:EXTERNAL]
------ End

I have tried to figure out what is going on here, experimented with  
different settings and obviously Googled, but no luck so far. Since  
I'm also quite new to this whole Lisp universe, perhaps you could  
point me towards something I could try to get clg to run...

Thanks in advance,
Nicolai

I noticed this empty cond clause that has broken the load of pixbufs.
