[slime-devel] Problems with New SLIME install, SBCL, CCL, and older lisp implementations

[John Miller]

Did you remember to do (slime-setup ‘(slime-fancy)) or (slime-setup ‘(slime-repl)) in your .emacs?

Regards,

Subject: [slime-devel] Problems with New SLIME install, SBCL, CCL,and older lisp implementations

I've been trying to get Clozure CCL to work with SLIME, and continue to run into numerous problems with more recent versions.

In the process of upgrading SLIME, I have more problems with older versions of SBCL and newer versions of SLIME.
None of these problems occurred with the repository versions of SLIME.

I have also had similar errors with other lisp implementations (older versions) that had worked: CLISP, GCL, CMUCL etc.

Here is my current system:
Ubuntu 9.10: Kernel Version 2.6.28.19
Emacs 23
Slime: CVS source as of 3/7/10
Clozure CCL Version 1.7-dev-r14664M-trunk
SBCL 1.0.29

Steps taken:
1. Purge from system repository versions of SLIME + SWANK. 
   SBCL 1.0.29 and CMUCL (Python 1.1) worked with these.
2. Install most recent version of SLIME, CCL, SBCL

Results:
Slime Message when CCL invoked:

; Warning: These Swank interfaces are unimplemented:
;           (ACTIVATE-STEPPING ADD-FD-HANDLER ADD-SIGIO-HANDLER
;            BACKGROUND-SAVE-IMAGE DUP EXEC-IMAGE MAKE-FD-STREAM
;            REMOVE-FD-HANDLERS REMOVE-SIGIO-HANDLERS SLDB-BREAK-AT-START
;            SLDB-BREAK-ON-RETURN SLDB-STEP-INTO SLDB-STEP-NEXT SLDB-STEP-OUT)
; While executing: SWANK-BACKEND::WARN-UNIMPLEMENTED-INTERFACES, in process listener(1).

It then drops me down into Emacs inferior-lisp.

Slime Message when SBCL 1.0.29 invoked:

WARNING: These Swank interfaces are unimplemented:

Again, Slime drops down into inferior-lisp mode.

Any ideas what needs to be done?
