[elephant-devel] Fail to load elephant 0.60 on fedora core 4 + sbcl

[Lui Fungsin]

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone can help here. I tried to compile elephant
0.60 on fedora core 4 + sbcl 0.9.16 + bdb43 but got stuck with an
error.

I also tried the cvs version which failed to compile the c file at this line

  errno = db->compact(db, txnid,
		     &DBTStart,
		     &DBTStop,
		     NULL,
		     flags,
		      &DBTEnd);


Since elephant depends on so many components (lisp implementation, OS,
bdb 4.3 / 4.4, clsql... etc), it is a lot of work to find out what
combination works and what doesn't.

I usually use lispworks (win32 or linux) with most of Ediware. Since
elephant does not support lispworks, I need to find another setup that
works with elephant + Ediware.

It would be great if people can report their working setup. (BTW,
lispworks and ACL are really solid. Since ACL is untouchable by most
people, I really wished that elephant can support lispworks in the
future.)

Thanks!
