How can ecl include asdf dependencies in an executable? (take 2)

Question

This question was asked and answered by ayrnieu at

But the example code he linked to does not actually involve any dependencies. I've tried copying the model in the stumpwm code he refers to but I can't get it to work. He are my files.

---- ecl-test.asd ----

(defsystem "ecl-test"
  :description "test of asdf:make-build"
  :depends-on (:mydefs)
  :components ((:file "package")
  (:file "ecl-test" :depends-on ("package"))
  (:file "main" :depends-on ("package" "ecl-test"))
        )
)

---- ecl-test.lisp ----

    (in-package :ecl-test)

    (defun test ()
      (format t "testing...~%")

;; Note that with the next line commented out,
;; the program never uses the package "mydefs".
;;    (format t (write-to-string (mydefs:number-sequence :from 2 :to 7)))

      (format t "...done~%"))

---- package.lisp ----

(defpackage :ecl-test
  (:use :cl 
 :mydefs
 )
  (:export :test))

---- main.lisp ----

(ecl-test:test)
(ext:quit)

This compiles successfully (in slime):

CL-USER> (asdf:make-build 'ecl-test :type :program :monolithic t :epilogue-code '(ext:quit 0))

But executing ecl-test-mono produces an error.

~/lisp/ecl-test$ ./ecl-test-mono

The function ASDF::SYSTEM-REGISTERED-P is undefined.
No restarts available.

Broken at NIL.
ECL-TEST>>

SYSTEM-REGISTERED-P seems to be an unexported function in ASDF, I have no idea why that's popping up here, but then, I'm a newbie so what do I know.

Answer 1

You're better off asking this on ecls-list.

Or try this in your call to MAKE-BUILD:

:prologue-code '(require :asdf)

Answer 2

Thanks, I didn't know about ecls-list.

Asking the question there quickly yielded the answer:

I was using the developmental version of ECL (10.1.1). Switching to last official release (9.12.3) solved the problem.
