void variable clomacs--doc

[Ninlives]

every time when I eval (require 'clomacs) it shows Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable clomacs--doc)

Emacs version:24.5 OS:windows 10(does this matter?)

[kostafey]

How did you install it (via MELPA or manually)? Is it the last version of clomacs? Could you paste full error trace please (M-x toggle-debug-on-error).

[Ninlives]

via MELPA, I guess it means the latest version? the full error trace is `Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable clomacs--doc)

Sorry for such a mess I don't know how to deal with it...

[kostafey]

Looks like we clashed here with another third-party package. You can try to reproduce it with emacs -Q. From the other side, we can try to make Elisp interpreter happy. Please, try the last commit of clomacs.

[Ninlives]

Sorry but the latest commit report the same error on my emacs.... tried to start emacs -Q and just load the required packages, this is the error trace `Debugger entered--Lisp error: (void-variable clomacs--doc)

By the way, is it neccessary to start individual server for every library? I mean, I'm new to clojure so I 'm just asking, because starting a new server do take few seconds :-)

[Ninlives]

added (defvar clomacs--doc) at the beginning of the clomacs.el seems to solve the problem, don't know if this would cause other issues..

[Ninlives]

changed

(eval-after-load "clomacs"
  '(progn
     (clomacs-highlight-initialize)

     (defvar clomacs--doc)

     ;; Should be last `clomacs-defun'
     (clomacs-defun clomacs--doc
                    clojure.repl/doc
                    :return-value :stdout)

     (defun clomacs-doc (x)
       (if (clomacs-get-connection)
           (clomacs--doc x)))))

to

(eval-after-load "clomacs"
  (lambda()
     (clomacs-highlight-initialize)

     (defvar clomacs--doc)

     ;; Should be last `clomacs-defun'
     (clomacs-defun clomacs--doc
                    clojure.repl/doc
                    :return-value :stdout)

     (defun clomacs-doc (x)
       (if (clomacs-get-connection)
           (clomacs--doc x)))))

also works.

Maybe something wrong with the eval-after-load function call?

[Ninlives]

Ok I think I got it. I removed the clomacs.elc file and restart emacs, everything works fine. I think it is because the clomacs--doc is defined in a quoted list,so when the file was byte-compiled the information was lost. You may try to byte-compile your source file to see if you could reproduce the issue. Hope this will help.

[kostafey]

Ok, let's unquote eval-after-load contents here to troubleshooting future installation problems.

By the way, is it neccessary to start individual server for every library? I mean, I'm new to clojure so I 'm just asking, because starting a new server do take few seconds :-)

The first version of clomacs behaves exactly in this way. I thought that clomacs user can use any nREPL server. This solution has some problems:

1. You should have a way to load all required jar* dependencies. This means you should have a way to load com.cemerick/pomegranate. You can't do any assumptions about current nREPL process. So, I loaded all required libraries manually. That is definitely ugly (see this code: https://github.com/clojure-emacs/clomacs/blob/752bba96a434d721681a2448c8345b968273859e/src/clj/clomacs/clomacs.clj#L125). For more details see clomacs 0.0.1 version last commit: https://github.com/clojure-emacs/clomacs/tree/752bba96a434d721681a2448c8345b968273859e
2. If you have to load different versions of libraries for different extensions (in that times I believed we'll have many of them :)) you will get a problem.
3. If you terminate you experimental nREPL process, you will lose process associated with (probably stable) Emacs mixed Elisp-Clojure extension.

So, finally I've decided to be close to CIDER as much as possible and keep one nREPL with all associated Clojure/Java code for every extension.

[kostafey]

I have no success with reproducing of this problem (so far), but can I consider the problem solved with last commit?

[Ninlives]

Hmm..weired, still have so much to learn about elisp. I think the safest way is to add a declaration at the beginning. Anyway, thanks for the quick response :)

[Ninlives]

Sorry, I guess I just forgot to remove the (defvar clomacs--doc) in my .emacs file when I test the code. The quoted list doesn't matter, but byte-compile the file do have some influence. And add a declaration of clomacs--doc can still fix the issue. Apologize for any confusion I may have made. And thanks for your answer to my question.

[tutysara]

I still see this issue. I installed ejc-sql in spacemacs and it failed with a compilation error -- ejc-interaction.el:23:1 Error: Symbol's value as variable is void: clomacs--doc
