Work-around for ECL bug #3161786 #4

Closed marciof closed 13 years ago

marciof commented 13 years ago

Hi,

I went on to install Quicklisp using ECL 11.1.1 in Windows 7 64-bit and I ran into an issue. Specifically, bug number 3161786 http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3161786&group_id=30035&atid=398053.

I've tried to fix it, and seems to work fine so far. However, I had to install Quicklisp inside the Visual Studio command prompt so that "sys/types.h" could be found by ECL when executing the CL compiler. Maybe a warning could be added if the compilation fails on Windows so that the user can double check his environment?

This was reported fixed in the ECL bug tracker. Is the bug fixed in ECL or no?

marciof commented 13 years ago

The fix seems to be already in the repository, but the latest release (11.1.1) doesn't have it.

And thanks for the tip, I'm still learning Lisp.

Sorry...if it's fixed in the ECL repo, people who want to use Quicklisp will need to get ECL from the repo. I'm not going to add a workaround for it.
