* ASDF 3.2.1
Version 1.4.0
=============
08-OCT-2016
Enhancements
============
* Consolidated RUN-PROGRAM fixes (ferada, pipping)
In support of getting a more universal UIOP:RUN-PROGAM across all
contemporary Lisp implementations.
* Upstream consolidated patchset (ferada)
** [r14857] Support `FILE-POSITION` on string streams.
** [r14859] Add multiple disassembler selector.

Version 1.3.3
=============
18-SEP-2015
Enhancements
------------
* [r14802,r14813] Add character name for non-breaking space
Use a human readable name for character 160, #\No-break_space,
following sbcl, ccl and clisp. This permits the Quicklisp system
spinneret to load. The #\No-break_space name is a valid
CHAR-NAME/NAME-CHAR pair, but is not emitted as a glyph under the
current output encoding under the CL:FORMAT "~:c" directive as
these implementations do by default.
Thanks to Javier Olaechea.
Fixes
-----
* [r14808] CL:FILE-WRITE-DATE fixed for logical pathnames
* ANSI-TEST
** Update references to new git repository at
** ABCL now runs the git master consolidated ANSI-TEST suite which
features subdirectories and distinquished value for
*DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*.
** ABCL.TEST.ANSI:CLEAN-TESTS now acts recursively via appropiate
Pathname wildcards to match new directory structure.

ABCL-CONTRIB.
* ABCL-ASDF
** Use of Maven has been robustified.
*** [r14803] Fix usage with all known versions through maven-3.3.3
Addresses .
*** [r14806] Fix usage with specifying local Maven repository
** More complete attempt at re-initialization via
(ABCL-ASDF:INIT :force t)
Version 1.3.2
=============
19-APR-2015
Enhancements
------------
* Make result of DEFINE-MODIFY-MACRO available at compilation time
[r14727]
Fixes
-----
* Fix failed AVER [#289] [r14763]
* Fix incorrect dead code elimination
Additionally, don't recurse into flet/labels upon elimination of a
single labels function; simply continue by changing the applicable
set. Reported by Vibhu Mohindra. [r14754][r14756]

boundaries [r14749-50] (Massimiliano Ghilardi).
* Return SIMPLE-ERROR for invalid external-format arguments.[r14735]

accessible where necessary [r14715] [r14725]
* ABCL-ASDF
** Update to current Maven support (keep up with changing APIs through
the Maven 3.2.3-3.2.5 hysteresis) [r14742-7] (Cyrus Hamon).

* ASDF
** Updated to version 3.1.4.
Version 1.3.1
=============
30-APR-2014
## Fixed
* The underlying Java Function Interface (JFI) now converts CL:T and
CL:NIL to JAVA:+TRUE+ and JAVA:+FALSE+. Users who wish to
reference a JAVA:+NULL+ should do so explicitly.
* Make JCALL work in more places. Thanks to Olof-Joachim Frahm.
* Interpolate CL:SLEEP and THREADS:OBJECT-WAIT for timeouts below the
Planck timer ("1ns") to a nanosecond.
* Update to ASDF 3.1.0.103.
Fixes loading of Ironclad and other Quicklisp systems.
* Fix Uniform Naming Convention (aka "UNC" or "network") paths under Windows.
DIRECTORY now works again on UNC paths.
UNC paths may be either specified with either back slash (#\\) or
forward slash (#\/) doubled as the first character in a Pathname
namestring.
The patterns in
////[directories-and-files]
are parsed as
is stored as HOST.
is stored as DEVICE.
[directories-and-files] gets parsed as per the normal rules under
Windows.
Mixing namestrings with both backslash and slash characters can
lead to unpredictable results. It is recommended not to use
backslash characters in namestrings if it can be avoided. The
pathname printed representation is always normalized to using
forward slash delimiters.
* Find contrib based on system jar name.
From Olof-Joachim Frahm.
Version 1.3.0
=============
15-MAR-2014
## Features
* Make LispStackFrame.UNAVAILABLE_ARG a singleton object,
and lazily create the little used portions of the Lisp stack.
Aggressively cache and control the use of memory by the underlying
Lisp stack frame representation by introducing the private
LispThread.StackFrame and LispThread.StackSegments classes.
Contributed by Dmitry Nadezhin.
LispStackFrame object are allocated on every
LispThread.execute(...) . However, they are seldom [accessed]
([... verify via] inspect[tion of the] stack trace). This patch
delays allocation of LispStackFrame? objects until they are
requested. Raw information about stack frames is stored in
stack. Stack is an Object[] array (more precisely a list of [...]4
[Mib] Object[] arrays).
ME: We are going to need a way to try to less agressively grab 4Mib
chunks in low memory situations.
Memory profiling of ABCL shows that the classes with largest
allocation count are org.armedbear.lisp.LispStackFrame and
org.armedbear.lisp.LispStackFrame.UnavailableArgument.
Contributed by Dmitry Nadezhin.

[r14579]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14579
* ASDF 3.0.1.94 shipped with the implementation
* per function call stack and memory exception handler in CL:COMPILE
Inline calls to jrun-exception-protected (used by handler-bind to
catch out of memory conditions). This commit saves generation
roughly 50 cls files.
[r14552]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14552
* SYS:SHA256 audited
The functionality if the SYS:SHA256 algorithim has been audited for
use on inputs of single for files with recently shipping ORCL Java 7
implementations (through jdk-1.7.0_51).
[r14582]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14582
* Connect to NetBeans controlled JDWP via SLIME
The Netbeans IDE configuration now includes a way to connect to
the running-under-jdb ABCL via SLIME. One needs a version of
SLIME able to be loaded from its 'swank.asd' definition.
* Install 'abcl.jar' and 'abcl-contrib.jar' locally as Maven artifacts
The Ant `abcl.mvn.install` target now installs build artifacts
into the local Maven repository (Olof-Joachim Frahm)
[r14579]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14606
## Compatibility
* CL:DIRECTORY
The implementation specific :RESOLVE-SYMLINKS argument to the ANSI
DIRECTORY function has been changed to nil. This implements
behavior closer to SBCL and guarantees that a DIRECTORY operation
will not signal a file error.
[r14619]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14619
[ticket-340]: http://abcl.org/trac/ticket/340
## Fixes
* Fix CL:SLEEP for intervals less than a millisecond.
For intervals less than or equal to a nanosecond, including an
interval of zero, the current thread merely yields execution to
other threads.
[r14632]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14632

## Contrib
#### abcl-asdf
* Now working with both Maven 3.0.x and 3.1.x. Thanks to Anton for
the help!
[ticket-328]: http://abcl.org/trac/ticket/328
* cache Maven dependency resolution to avoid repeated lookups.
Instead of calling ABCL-ASDF:RESOLVE in both the ASDF COMPILE-OP
and LOAD-OP, we now cache the result of invocation in COMPILE-OP
and add this value in the LOAD-OP phase. Contributed by Cyrus
Harmon.
[r14631]: http://abcl.org/trac/changeset/14631
#### jna
Now references jna-4.0.0. Some incompatibility with CFFI ([in

Version 1.1.0
=============
07-DEC-2012
Features
--------
* A functioning (A)MOP implementation through the hard work of Rudi
Schlatte (@rudi)
* The implementation can be used across many more Quicklisp systems
through a process of extensive testing. Thanks @xach!
Nota bene: all of the following systems need patches to work as
of the 2012-10-13 Quicklisp. All patches have been accepted in
at least an initial form by the upstream maintainers.
** CLOSER-MOP
Quite possible with local patches
** CFFI
Needs patches to 2012-10-13 Quicklisp. [!!?]
*** Dynamic interfaces idempotent across process -- no more reloading
** HUNCHENTOOT
*** some bugs with underlying streams to be fixed in abcl-1.2-dev
** CXML
Basic XML parsing works. XPath still borked. [???]
* Java 5 bytecode Compiler
The internal Lisp-to-Java bytecode compiler has been hardened by
regression testing across Quicklisp libraries.
** Extensive interpreter/compiler bug fixes due to access to cl-test-suite [???] @antov
** large objects (?!?)
* The facility to construct runtime classes via JNEW-RUNTIME-CLASS (@astalla)
Pretty close to full coverage of primtives for creating synthethic
java classes at runtime. Easy to extend with your needs; sensible
defaults.
** Fields
*** getter/setters
** Annotations
* ASDF
** Stock ASDF-2.26.6 which includes #+abcl conditional patches
for the URL-PATHAME and JAR-PATHNAME implementation extensions
to ANSI.
* ABCL-CONTRIB
** ABCL-ASDF
Network installation of binary artifacts named by Maven POM uris.
*** checks at runtime if a given class is present in the
accessible classloaders
*** If the check for the presence of a class fails, find a
maven-3.0.4 binary locally, execute its Aether connector
to retrieve its transitive dependencies from the network.
** JSS
Java Syntax Sucks. q.v [lsw2]
Extensive bugfixing wrt. method resolution [#229]
** JFLI
A "captured from the wild" version of what @rich.hickey did before Clojure.

bordeaux-threads, parenscript, cxml, et. al.)
Changes
-------
* Updated ASDF to 2.017.22
Fixes
-----
* CLOSURE-HTML now compiles
* DEFINE-METHOD-COMBINATION long form implemented
Version 0.27.0
==============
Features
--------
* ABCL works as an SBCL build host
* Huge (> 64k) literal object support (fixes CL-UNICODE support)
* The ABCL-ASDF contrib allows the specification of JAR-FILE or
JAR-DIRECTORY components that can be resolved via a PATHNAME. The
MVN component bootstraps a Maven3 Aether connector to locally
replicate a versioned jar artifact for dynamic inclusion in the
CLASSPATH.
Changes
-------
* Renamed LispObject.writeToString() method to (more Lispy) printObject()
* New LispObject.princToString() for user readable output
* Changed behaviour of LispObject.unreadableString() to signal
errors when *PRINT-READABLY* is non-NIL

prevent repeated execution when invoking the constructor multiple times
* Compiler clean-ups
* Changed implementation of LABELS to eliminate the need
to *always* create a closure
* File compiler (COMPILE-FILE) clean-ups
* When calling a function with the wrong number of arguments,
report the expected (range) of arguments
* Upgraded ASDF to 2.017
* JSS:JLIST-TO-LIST now converts any java.list.List to a Lisp list.
* The ASDF extensions from JSS for the "jar-directory", "jar-file",
and "class-file-directory" types have been refactored into the
ABCL-ASDF contrib as well as the *ADDED-TO-CLASSPATH* variable
which records dynamically added dependencies. Use the
JSS:ENSURE-COMPATIBILITY function to have JSS include these
dependencies.
* As long as ABCL-ASDF:ENSURE-MVN-VERSION can dynamically introspect
and then load Maven 3 libraries at runtime, ASDF components of type
MVN can now be used to specify versioned JVM artifacts.
* Threads spawned by THREADS:MAKE-THREAD can terminate the Lisp image
via the EXT:QUIT and EXT:EXIT functions.

FMAKUNBOUND calls and the resulting windows where no function is bound to
symbols which are the most essential building blocks in CLOS/AMOP.
* [svn r13200] Atomically swap generic functions into place of temporary
DEFUNs for all standard-class slot accessors.
Note: This addresses the recursive requirement to be able
to allocate objects and classes while changing the functions
used to create them.
* [svn r13196] Provide more context regarding the reason of autoloading.
Note: This change *hugely* helps debugging.

evaluation of :CLASS allocation slot initforms.
* [svn r13182-r13184] Fix error printing issues.
* [svn r13181] Increase autoload verbosity: include FASLs too
(not only Java classes).
Changes
-------
* Merge 'unsafe-p-removal' branch.
Version 0.24.0

* [svn r13102] More type-conversion helpers in JAVA package:
LIST-FROM-JARRAY, VECTOR-FROM-JARRAY, and LIST-FROM-JENUMERATION.
* [svn r13078] JVM::MAKE-CLASS-INTERFACE-FILE provides an interface
for the creation of Java interfaces as serialized by the new
classwriter code. An example of use can be found in
"examples/misc/dynamic-interfaces.lisp".
* [svn r13087] Upgraded to ASDF-2.012

"unpacked JAR" situation found by running ABCL in the Glassfish v3
servlet container.
* [svn r13096] For arrays, add initialization with the default value
of the element type if neither INITIAL-ELEMENT nor INITIAL-CONTENT

* [svn r13094] Eliminate flushes after every character in
javax.scripting support.
* [svn r13090] Make --batch exit, use Lisp.exit() in places where

RandomAccessCharacterFile. Found and fixed by David Kirkman.
Changes
-------
* [svn r13141-13146,13156] Make ABCL a well behaving library to better
support embedding: NEVER call System.exit() again. Instead, ABCL now
throws org.armedbear.lisp.ProcessingTerminated and
org.armedbear.lisp.IntegrityError.
* [svn r13111] Added a "tools" directory available in SVN repository
to contain tools for developing ABCL in various states. The first
inhabitant is 'code-grapher.lisp' that provides a prototype to
diagram a JVM instruction sequence via graphviz.
* [svn r13101] Reduced verbosity of the AbclScriptEngine.
* [svn r13097-13100] Slight refactoring of PATHNAME code, further
specifying URI escaping rules.

Fixes
-----
* [ticket #89] Inlining of READ-LINE broken when the return value
is unused.
* [svn r12636] Java class verification error when compiling PROGV
in a context wanting an unboxed return value (typically a
logical expression).
* [svn r12635] ABCL loads stale fasls instead of updated source
even when LOAD is called with a file name without extension.
* [ticket #92] Codepoints between #xD800 and #xDFFF are incorrectly
returned as characters from CODE-CHAR.
* [ticket #93] Reader doesn't handle zero returned values from
macro functions correctly.

bound by user code.
* [svn r12586] Increased function dispatch speed by eliminating
FIND-CLASS calls (replacing them by constant references).
* [svn r12656] PATHNAME-JAR now properly uses HTTP/1.1 HEAD requests

Version 0.19
============
14-MAR-2010
Features
--------
* [svn r12518] *DISASSEMBLER* may now contain a hook which returns the

proposed in Christopher Rhodes, "User-extensible sequences in Common
Lisp", Proc. of the 2007 International Lisp Conference.
* [svn r12513] Implement SYS:SRC and SYS:JAVA logical pathname
translations for system Lisp source and the root of the Java package
structure, respectively.
* [svn r12505] All calls to anonymous functions and local functions that have
been declared inline are now converted to LET* forms, reducing stack usage
and the number of generated classes.
* [svn r12487] An initial port ASDF-INSTALL now forms the first ABCL
contrib. Such contribs are optionally built by the Ant target
'abcl.contrib'. ASDF-INSTALL is not expected to work very well
under Windows in its present state.
* [svn r12447] [ticket:80] REQUIRE now searches for ASDF systems.
* [svn r12422] Jar pathname support extensively re-worked and tested
so that LOAD, PROBE-FILE, TRUENAME, DIRECTORY, and WRITE-FILE-DATE
all work both for local and remote jar pathnames of the form
"jar:URL!/JAR-ENTRY".
The loading ASDF systems from jar files is now possible.
SYS:PATHNAME-JAR-P predicate signals whether a pathname references a
jar.
NB: jar pathnames do *not* currently work as an argument to OPEN.
SYS:UNZIP implemented to unpack ZIP files.

hierarchical entries.
* [svn r12450] Collect unprocessed command-line arguments in
EXT:*COMMAND-LINE-ARGUMENT-LIST* (Dennis Lambe Jr.)

of tests which match a string.
Fixes/Optimizations
-------------------
* [svn r12526] Unbinding of PROGV bound variables on local transfer
of control (within-java-function jump targets)
* [svn r12510] The new ansi-test WITH-STANDARD-IO-SYNTAX.23 passes.
Our with-standard-io-syntax implementation now correctly resets all necessary
pprint variables. Patch by Douglas R. Miles, thanks for the contribution!
* [svn r12485] Pathnames starting with "." can now have TYPE.
* [svn r12484] FASLs containing "." characters not used to indicate
type (i.e. ".foo.bar.baz.abcl") can now be loaded.
* [svn r12422] Pathname.java URL contructor under Windows now properly
interprets the drive letter.
* [svn r12449] The 'abcl.jar' produced by Netbeans now contains a valid
manifest (found by Paul Griffionen).
* [svn r12441] ZipCache now caches all references to ZipFiles based on
the last-modified time for local files. Remote files are always
retrieved due to problems in the underlying JVM code.
SYS:REMOVE-ZIP-CACHE implements a way to invalidate an entry given a
pathname.
* [svn r12439] Remove duplication of java options in Windows
'abcl.bat' script.
* [svn r12437] CHAR-CODE-LIMIT is the upper execlusive limit (found by
Paul Griffionen).
* [svn r12436] Describe formatting was missing a newline (reported by
Blake McBride).
* [svn 12469] Ensure that FILE-ERROR always has a value (possibly NIL)
for its PATHNAME member.
* [svn r14222] MERGE-PATHNAMES no longer potentially shares structure
between its result and *DEFAULT-PATHNAME-DEFAULTS*.
* [svn r12416] Fixed ANSI LAMBDA.nn test failures caused by errors in
lambda inlining.
* [svn r12417] [ticket:83] Fix TRANSLATE-LOGICAL-PATHNAME regression.
(Alan Ruttenberg).
* [svn r12412] Optimize memory efficiency of FORMAT by use of a
hashtable rather than a CHAR-CODE-LIMIT array.
* [svn r12408] FIND-SYMBOL requires a string argument.
* [svn r12400] Make NIL (as symbol) available to the compiler.
* [svn r12398] Move lambda list analysis to compile time where possible.
* [svn r12397] BROADCAST-STREAM obeys default external format fixing
ANSI MAKE-BROADCAST-STREAM.8.
* [svn r12395] Improve arglist display for SLIME (Matthias Hölzl).
* [svn r12394] Optimize array utilization in closures.
* [svn r12393] Optimize array functions in compiler which don't
require clearing the VALUES array.
* [svn r12392] Optimize/normalize aspects of boot.lisp
* [svn r12391] Prevent duplicated subclasses form occuring.
Other
-----
* [svn r12447] SYS::*MODULE-PROVIDER-FUNCTION* now provides a mechanism
to extend the REQUIRE resolver mechanism at runtime.
* [svn r12430] Ant based build no longer writes temporary files to
contain the Lisp build instructions.
* [svn r12481] STANDARD-CLASS now has slots to be inherited by
deriving metaclasses in support of the (in progress) work on
metaclass.
* [svn r12425] No longer ignore the METACLASS defclass option in
support of the (in progress) work on metaclass
* [svn r12422] SYS::*LOAD-TRUENAME-FASL* now contains the TRUENAME of
the Java "*.cls" component when loading a packed FASL.
* [svn r12461] Human readable Java representations for class cast
exceptions for NULL and UNBOUND values.
* [svn r12453 et. ff.] Large numbers of the implementation of Java
primitives have been declared in a way so that a stack trace
provides a much more readable indication of what has been invoked.
Primitives which extend Primitive are prefixed with "pf_"; those
which extend SpecialOperator are prefixed with "sf_".
* [svn r12422] The internal structure of a jar pathname has changed.
Previously a pathname with a DEVICE that was itself a pathname
referenced a jar. This convention was not able to simultaneously
represent both jar entries that were themselves jar files (as occurs
with packed FASLs within JARs) and devices which refer to drive
letters under Windows. Now, a pathname which refers to a jar has a
DEVICE which is a proper list of at most two entries. The first
entry always references the "outer jar", and the second entry (if it
exists) references the "inner jar".
* [svn r12419] Ant 'abcl.release' target centralizes the build steps
necessary for creating releases.
* [svn r12409] Compiler now rewrites function calls with (LAMBDA …) as
the operator to LET* forms.
* [svn r12415] CLASS-FILE renamed to ABCL-CLASS-FILE to prepare for
(in progress) reworking of Stream inheritance.
* [svn r123406] 'test/lisp/abcl/bugs.lisp' forms a default location to
add unit tests for current bug testing. The intention is to move
these tests into the proper location elsewhere in the test suite
once they have been fixed.
* [svn r124040] Java tests upgraded to use junit-4.8.1. Netbeans
project runtime classpath now uses compilation results before source
directory, allowing the invocation of ABCL in interpreted mode if
the Ant 'abcl.compile.lisp.skip' property is set. Java unit tests
for some aspects of jar pathname work added.
* New toplevel 'doc' directory now contains:
+ [svn r12410] Design for the (in progress) reworking of the Stream
inheritance.
+ [svn r12433] Design and current status for the re-implementation
of jar pathnames.
* [svn r12402] Change ABCL unit tests to use the ABCL-TEST-LISP definition
contained in 'abcl.asd'. Fixed and renabled math-tests. Added new
tests for work related to handling jar pathnames.
* [svn r12401] The REFERENCES-NEEDED-P field of the LOCAL-FUNCTION structure now
tracks whether local functions need the capture of an actual
function object.
