Hi<br><br>I hope someone may be able to help.<br><br>I am trying to build Maxima on Windows using ECL. I have managed to get so far but have some problems. <br><br>For example I am trying to resolve the following error: -<br>
<br>>>>>>>> (trace mk:oos) (mk:oos "maxima" :compile)<br>The function MAKE:OOS is already traced.<br>(MAKE:OOS)<br>>>>>>>> | 2> (MAKE:OOS "maxima" :COMPILE)<br>
;;; Loading "C:/maxima-5.18.1/src/binary-ecl/maxima-package.obj"<br>Found invalid character Soh<br>Broken at MAKE::LOAD-FILE-OPERATION. File: #P"C:/maxima-5.18.1/lisp-utils/defsystem.lisp" (Form #226)<br>
No restarts available.<br>Broken at MAKE::LOAD-FILE-OPERATION. File: #P"C:/maxima-5.18.1/lisp-utils/defsystem.lisp" (Form #226)<br>>>>>>>>><br><br>Are there any actions I can take that will help me find out where a problem lies. For example how can I determine in which file the "invalid character" Soh is? For that matter what character is "Soh" and why is it invalid? Also what is the significance of the string "Form #226" and is it possible to get some form of exception tracing showing lines numbers, file names and function names?<br>
<br>I know these might seem like basic questions but any help would be appreciated.<br><br>Thanks<br>Blair<br>
