• Synopsis: I want to try the clasp common lisp implementation. First I describe how to build it on Gentoo. Then I discuss how to install it on Fedora (with the gentoo llvm and clang libraries).

• building (on gentoo)

+begin_example

emacs /etc/portage/package.accept_keywords

add the following lines

sys-devel/clang ~amd64 sys-devel/clang-runtime ~amd64 sys-devel/llvm ~amd64 sys-libs/compiler-rt ~amd64 sys-libs/compiler-rt-sanitizers ~amd64 sys-libs/libomp ~amd64

sudo emerge -av =clang-13.0.0 sudo emerge -av dev-libs/boehm-gc sudo ln -s /usr/lib/llvm/13/bin/llvm-config /usr/lib/llvm/13/bin/llvm-config-13.0-64 export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/llvm/13/bin/

can't compile in imgui

cd clasp/extensions; git clone https://github.com/clasp-developers/imgui-clasp

sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libGL.so /usr/lib64/libgl.so

https://clasp-developers.github.io/building.html

./waf distclean # (1) ./waf configure # (2)

emacs wscript

edit out the following lines

clangASTMatchers ... clangBasic

and write one line with 'clang', 'clang-cpp'

./waf build_dboehmprecise # (3) build/boehmprecise/clasp

+end_example

• install quicklisp (i already had ~/quicklisp from my sbcl install)

  +begin_example

  clasp --load ~/quicklisp/setup.lisp (ql:add-to-init-file)

  +end_example

• documention for clasp:

  • https://github.com/drmeister/clasp
  • https://clasp-developers.github.io
  • https://github.com/clasp-developers/clasp-documentation/tree/main/org
  • https://github.com/clasp-developers/clasp-documentation/blob/main/org/manual.org

• install on fedora

  • copy the build results with dependencies

    +begin_example

    ~/src/clasp

    [martin@localhost clasp]$ find . -type f ./build/boehmprecise/libLLVM-13.so ./build/boehmprecise/libffi.so.7 ./build/boehmprecise/libclang.so.13 ./build/boehmprecise/generated/clasp.snapshot ./build/boehmprecise/clasp ./build/boehmprecise/libclang-cpp.so.13 ./build/boehmprecise/fasl/cclasp-boehmprecise-image.fasp [martin@localhost clasp]$ du -sh 900M .

    +end_example

  • run and add quicklisp

    +begin_example

    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/martin/src/clasp/build/boehmprecise/ clasp --load quicklisp/setup.lisp (ql:add-to-init-file)

    +end_example

  • package for release

    +begin_example

    get version with clasp -v

cd ~/src tar czf clasp-boehmprecise-0.4.2-4829-g392cd449a.tar.gz clasp [martin@localhost src]$ ls -ltrh clasp-boehmprecise-0.4.2-4829-g392cd449a.tar.gz -rw-rw-r--. 1 martin martin 191M Oct 31 23:57 clasp-boehmprecise-0.4.2-4829-g392cd449a.tar.gz
