    Threads and GC Implementation in Clozure CL R. Matthew Emerson Clozure Associates [email protected] 1. Introduction As an additional option, we use the direction flag (DF) Clozure CL (formerly OpenMCL) provides native threads in the EFLAGS register to indicate the status of the EDX and a precise, compacting, generational GC on all the plat- register. Clozure CL does not employ the x86 string instruc- forms it supports. tions, so this flag is otherwise unused. If DF is set, EDX is Native threads are scheduled by the operating system, treated as an immediate register, and a node otherwise (1). and are therefore subject to pre-emption at any instruction The thought is that manipulating this bit might be faster than boundary. Because other threads can allocate memory, this accessing memory. Measurements have not yet been made means that a GC can happen at any instruction boundary. to confirm or deny this notion.

  • Lisp Outside The
    CHAPTER 18 SLIME Introduction The Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for Emacs (or SLIME for short) is a widely used, powerful programming environment for Lisp programs. If you’re using Emacs to edit Common Lisp code then you really should consider working under SLIME. It integrates and standardizes the four basic Common Lisp development tools (listener, editor, in- spector and debugger) and augments these with some handy introspective interfaces (such as definition locators and advanced symbol completion). Simple “key chords” control the most common actions: compiling a single definition or a whole file, in- specting values or locating source from backtraces, choosing a restart after an error. SLIME will boost your productivity; by making information more instantly accessible it leaves you free to get on with thinking about your application. SLIME is open source and free to use. It supports ten out of the eleven Common Lisp implementations listed in Chapter 1, the exception being GNU Common Lisp (GCL); it runs under GNU Emacs versions 21-23 and XEmacs version 21; it works on Unix, Mac OS X, and Windows. We’ll be working here with Clozure CL and GNU Emacs running on FreeBSD but could equally have chosen a different combination and very little would have changed. The message of this chapter is that there’s little excuse for debugging complex appli- cations from a raw command line, and none for ignoring Lisp’s introspection facilities altogether. We’ll walk through SLIME’s most useful features and discuss some of the hairier configuration issues. I have to assume familiarity with Emacs; the initial learning curve for this application is quite steep and it’s probably beyond my remit to insist that you should study it just so you can follow this chapter.

  • A Debian Package for Clozure Common Lisp
    A Debian Package for Clozure Common Lisp Max Rottenkolber <[email protected]> Friday, 25 November 2016 I have created a bare-bones deb package containing Clozure CL 1.11 for use on Ubuntu, or other Linux distributions based on Debian. It con- tains vanilla CCL as distributed by Clozure (http://ccl.clozure.com/), and installs the supplied launcher script so it can be invoked as ccl. Download • clozure-cl_1.11_amd64.deb (PGP Signature (clozure-cl_1.11_amd64.deb.sig)) Installation I recommend the following procedure (not recommended if you want to keep using the Debian/Ubuntu supplied sbcl or Slime, the latter being very insistent on using the former): sudo apt purge sbcl slime && sudo apt autoremove dpkg -i clozure-cl_1.11_amd64.deb Clozure CL can now be invoked as ccl. Next, you can install Quick- lisp and Slime using the instructions on the Quicklisp website (https:// www.quicklisp.org/beta/#installation). Background I run Ubuntu (https://www.ubuntu.com/desktop) on my leisure com- puter, and wanted to get it ready to do some recreational programming, naturally using Clozure CL. I thought about setting up a PPA (https:/ /help.ubuntu.com/community/PPA), but after following “Getting Set 1 Up” (http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/getting-set-up.html), and “Packaging New Software” (http://packaging.ubuntu.com/ html/packaging-new-software.html) I was overwhelmed. It was when pbuilder-dist invoked debootstrap to install a spare copy of the entire distribution that I thought, “stop right there, old friend,” and hit C-c. I found a very reasonable blog post (https://blog.serverdensity.com/ how-to-create-a-debian-deb-package/) that outlines a simple proce- dure to avoid “getting set up”, but instead produce a deb package quickly.

  • Blackthorn: Lisp Game Engine
    Blackthorn: Lisp Game Engine Elliott Slaughter October 3, 2009 Contents 1 What is Blackthorn? 1 2 Why another game engine? 1 3 What does Blackthorn provide? 2 4 Technical details 2 4.1 Direct dependencies . 3 4.2 Windows only (optional) . 3 5 Installation 3 6 Download 4 1 What is Blackthorn? Blackthorn is a framework for writing 2D games in Common Lisp. Blackthorn is attempt to write an efficient, dynamic, persistent 2D game engine in an ex- pressive language which makes it easy to write games. 2 Why another game engine? Games are hard to write. The effort needed to write a usable game engine from scratch, especially when dealing with the low-level details of languages like C, make the cost of writing games prohibitive. Libraries like SDL get many of the driver-level graphics details out of the way, but still leave the user writing in C. Libraries like PyGame and LISPBUILDER-SDL wrap more of these low-level details, but still don't provide a full game engine needed for writing substantial games. There are, of course, game engines which provide this functionality to the user. Game Maker, for example, is an engine which provides everything needed to make a basic game, and an extention language for writing more complex 1 behavior. Using Game Maker, an experienced user can write a basic game in five minutes. However, Game Maker (and similar programs the authors have tried) have some substantial flaws. Problems with Game Maker, specifically, include: • Game Maker only runs on Windows. A Linux port is still a dream, and porting to any sort of mobile device is completely unimaginable.

  • Lisp Outside The
    CHAPTER 1 Preliminaries Choosing a Lisp Let’s start with some practical issues: picking a Common Lisp implementation, running it, coping when things go wrong, and turning for help when coping is no longer an option. With these out the way we can then embark on the language itself in Chapter 2. There are several competing implementations of Common Lisp available today. Dan Weinreb in his truly excellent paper Common Lisp Implementations: A Survey which you’ll find at http://common-lisp.net/~dlw/LispSurvey.html lists eleven of them. Our first question is: how to tell them apart? I can’t tell you which one to use; the decision is yours and depends on your requirements. Ultimately I refer you to Dan’s survey and to the websites of the implementations he lists. I will though suggest criteria to help you choose, in the sections below. I’ll follow this with a very brief summary of the eleven implementations. Picking an implementation so you can learn CL is different from choos- ing which Lisp to use for the delivery of a major project. I’ll try to guide you through both. Implementing Common Lisp Barring defects, which we hope are few and far between, all eleven Common Lisps listed in the survey implement and conform to ANSI INCITS 226-1994 American National Standard for Programming Language Common LISP. That’s quite a mouthful and I’ll refer to it from now on as the ANSI standard (or maybe just the standard). At the core language level, most of what happens in one implementation is exactly the same as what happens in another.
