| 1 | * ehu reports on work on abcl-1.1.0 for 20120805
|
|---|
| 2 |
|
|---|
| 3 | All in all a pretty good result for one week. However, from here on
|
|---|
| 4 | $WORK will start again which means I'll only be able to address the
|
|---|
| 5 | bigger issues in small steps. Or just the smaller issues, of
|
|---|
| 6 | course. Which is why I'm glad to have worked out the D-M-C stuff. That
|
|---|
| 7 | was a week more than full time work to completely comprehend the spec
|
|---|
| 8 | and macrology going on in our implementation.
|
|---|
| 9 |
|
|---|
| 10 | ** Work on DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION can be considered Done
|
|---|
| 11 |
|
|---|
| 12 | I left some todo's behind which should be relatively small in
|
|---|
| 13 | comparison to the original problem. It's now just a matter of changing
|
|---|
| 14 | the symbols in the backquote patterns.
|
|---|
| 15 |
|
|---|
| 16 | ** Autoloader rehab completed
|
|---|
| 17 |
|
|---|
| 18 | My work on the autoloader has been mostly done as far as our current
|
|---|
| 19 | infrastructure allows
|
|---|
| 20 |
|
|---|
| 21 | *** next steps:
|
|---|
| 22 |
|
|---|
| 23 | **** Clean autoload.lisp for any symbols which automatically end up in autoload-gen.lisp
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | **** Create infrastructure for autoloading of SETF functions (ie function names not designated by a symbol)
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 |
|
|---|
| 28 | ** Crashes evaluating a form referencing an undefined function in a clean image
|
|---|
| 29 |
|
|---|
| 30 | Solved by requiring PRINT-OBJECT in the right place With respect to
|
|---|
| 31 | this point: it's possibly a good idea to do a search of the code base
|
|---|
| 32 | and find out if we're doing this everywhere PRINT-OBJECT methods are
|
|---|
| 33 | being defined
|
|---|
| 34 |
|
|---|
| 35 | ** COMPILER-UNSUPPORTED-FEATURE-ERROR derived from CONDITION
|
|---|
| 36 |
|
|---|
| 37 | solved
|
|---|
| 38 |
|
|---|
| 39 | ** Autoloader fails when *READ-xxx* variables bound to unexpected values
|
|---|
| 40 |
|
|---|
| 41 | solved
|
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | ** Implement USE-FAST-CALLS properly
|
|---|
| 44 |
|
|---|
| 45 | Resolved by deleting the USE-FAST-CALLS infrastructure from the
|
|---|
| 46 | interpreter; the compiler already does the right thing
|
|---|
| 47 |
|
|---|
| 48 | ** Compiling #n# causes stack overflow
|
|---|
| 49 |
|
|---|
| 50 | Stas Boukarev reports that the case I've fixed only fixes in-memory
|
|---|
| 51 | compilation and the issue still exists in file
|
|---|
| 52 | ¯compilation. Ticket #191 should be re-opened to and should say so.
