Re: [Exp-engine-devel] Trying to load on recent sbcl on Mac or Linux

Hi Craig,
Thank you for all the help so far (and all the effort you've put into
exp-engine!). I think we are close to getting something to work, just need
a bit more advice on exactly how to kick off a validation run (see below).
I think Solomon will be happy either being able to run ./eengine on the OS
command line, or running the ee:exp-engine function from within a Lisp
session. We just have to get a bit more educated on how to do it properly.
Incidentally, in due course (when I understand the system a bit better) I
will be happy to give feedback on setting things up to be able to switch
CLIM on and off, getting the library included into Quicklisp, etc.
By the way, with SBCL, are you using mcclim as the CLIM module? I was able
to get :mcclim loaded through Quicklisp:
(ql:quickload :mcclim)
but, after loading, I don't see some of the the operators you are using,
like clim:note-progress, defined in there by default...

Can you give an example of calling ee:exp-engine from within a running
Lisp?

Ok, with the clim: operators commented out, and sbcl/deliver.lisp modified
to load "load-engine.lisp" instead of "system.lisp", we get an eengine
produced.
Running:
./eengine --help
produces generic SBCL help.
Running
./eengine [with no arguments]
produces:
Error: There is no applicable method for the generic function
#<STANDARD-GENERIC-FUNCTION EEK:MAKE-SESSION (1)> when
called with arguments
(:CLIM).
(because apparently the ee-restart in top-level.lisp is still trying to
call the :clim operation).
Modifying the ee-restart function in top-level.lisp to apply the :cli
(presumably "command-line interface" instead of :clim operation, as follows:
(defun ee-restart (#|restart functions take no args|#)
(handler-case
(let ((args (get-args)))
(apply #'exp-engine :operation :cli :name (file-namestring (first
args))
(arglist-to-plist (rest args))))
(cli-arg-invalid (err)
(unless (eql (mode err) :help) (format t "Error: ~A~%" err))
(run-op nil :help)
(exit 1))
(ee-error (err)
(format t "Express Engine Error: ~A~%" err)
(exit 1))
(error (err)
(format t "Error: ~A~%" err)
(exit 1)))
(exit 0))
then rebuilding the eengine, produces:
./eengine
Error: There is no applicable method for the generic function
#<STANDARD-GENERIC-FUNCTION EE:RUN-OP (9)>
when called with arguments
(#<EEK::CL-SESSION {10035B97F3}> :CLI).
So, is there something different which has to happen in the ee-restart, or
am I not passing the correct arguments to the ./eengine ? I assume the
./eengine --help
it intended to give specific command-line advice for eengine, but as I
mentioned, it's giving generic SBCL command-line help.
Best Regards,
Dave
