Hi Arie,<div><br></div><div>I occasionally produce new builds of J when there is a new version of ABCL. When the ABCL pathname change appeared, I fixed it up so that J would build again, but didn't test much as you have found out. I'd love to get some help with the lisp side of things in J. For example, the slime integration doesn't work and I've disabled the command.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I'll take a look at the path issue in J and see if I can unblock you. Also, for J issues we still use the old sourceforge <a href="http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=armedbear-j-users ">users</a> and <a href="http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_name=armedbear-j-devel">dev</a> mailing lists.</div>

Hi Mark,<div><br></div><div>what a pity! I really think the combination of J and ABCL is a superb platform for Common Lisp development.</div><div>Alas I do not like Emacs and J is like a fresh breeze.</div><div><br></div>
<div>
I'd very much like this issue to be fixed by somebody in the know.</div><div><br></div><div>Thx for the prompt and to the point response!</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div> Arie<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

>From your report, it seems likely that you are encountering problems<br>
stemming from the use of forward slash as the PATHNAME separator<br>
on all platforms in [abcl-0.21][1] (N.B. strings with backslash<br>
characters are normalized by the PATHNAME routines to forward slashes<br>
so such input should be fine). What is odd about your report, is<br>
that abcl-0.19 does not have this "all slashes become forward<br>
slashes" behavior, so it should not produce the same kind of error.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, ABCL development was split off from J quite some<br>
time ago (three years?). Wethe ABCL developers on armedbear-developdo<br>
not actively test with the J source tree, nor do we make the J<br>
releases. If there are J developers out there who wish help bringing<br>
the integrated ABCL release forward to solve this issue, we would<br>
be more than happy to assist by debugging/modifying our side.<br>
