Question

How do I use (require :PACKAGE) in clisp under Ubuntu Hardy?

Answer 1

+2 A:

try this before anything else:

(require :asdf)

you can steal some ideas from the environment we use. it's available at: darcsweb

see environment.lisp that loads and sets up asdf for us. (sbcl has asdf already loaded)

Answer 2

+4 A:

The instructions you got mentioned SBCL explicitely, so it's expected that they'll work better using SBCL, I suppose. Some other Lisps don't come with ASDF or don't hook it up to CL:REQUIRE. In the former case, you'll have load ASDF yourself beforehand. In the latter case, you'll need to call (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op ) instead of (require ).

Answer 3

+3 A:

wget http://cclan.cvs.sourceforge.net/checkout/cclan/asdf/asdf.lisp

It worth checking out clbuild. http://common-lisp.net/project/clbuild/

To get a lisp webserver up and running. You only need:

darcs get http://common-lisp.net/project/clbuild/clbuild
cd clbuild
chmod +x ./clbuild
./clbuild check
./clbuild build slime hunchentoot
./clbuild preloaded

Now a lisp repl will start. There you write:

* (hunchentoot:start-server :port 8080)

Testing that the server answer:

wget -O - http://localhost:8080/

<html><head><title>Hunchentoot</title></head>
 <body><h2>Hunchentoot Default Page</h2>
  <p>This is the Hunchentoot default page....

Answer 4

+1 A:

use clc:clc-require in clisp. Refer to 'man common-lisp-controller'. I had the same error in clisp and resolved it by using clc:clc-require. sbcl works fine with just require though.
