You are allowed to download it, maybe you aren't allowed to redistribute it unless some specific rules are met, it's probably not compatible with the other licenses of Portacle components, but IANAL and neither is anyone working on Portacle.

Morning again. Did some more research on my CFFI / SBCL / problem yesterday following up on your suggestions and captured my findings here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57906498/installing-sbcl-ffi-packages-on-mac-via-quicklisp . Any hints on SO or here would be greatly appreciated!

I've been fixing a number of c-inline stuff in ECL and usocket these past couple of days.

However, I now seem to have a state where I can actually use one of the logging packages I tried earlier. log4cl and verbose both ended up having the same issue, but now that I've gotten my patches merged I can try using one of them again. (<- Shinmera )

pjb: well, I'm "forced" to do that, otherwise what I'm actually working on wouldn't work (or get nice UNKNOWN_ERROR's sprinkled everywhere...)

asdf_asdf_asdf: what do you mean? I've found the (or, at least some) issues and fixed them. Now I can go back to what I was originally working on

I'm actually a little shocked at how unfinished a lot of stuff seems in relation to ECL. In ECL code itself, but also supporting code in for example usocket and bordeaux-threads

asdf_asdf_asdf: problem already solved. This, for example: https://github.com/usocket/usocket/pull/55

Someone know which instruction in aliens instructions is void* and null from C?

Comments like ";; really big FIXME: This whole copy-buffer thing is broken." in SBCL sockets.lisp also doesn't really inspire a lot of nice fuzzy feelings...

thijso: I think in ECL's case it's because it didn't recieve a lot of love until jackdaniel picked up as maintainer.
16:02:48
thijso
Yeah, not complaining. It's just that I usually work in SBCL and haven't had the experience of these kinds of issues before. However, I'm stuck with ECL for now. Unless anyone knows of other ways to build android apps in Common Lips (that don't cost money).

But, on the other hand, seeing that comment in the SBCL source code... maybe I've just been lucky ;)

thijso: ecl is basically a one-man operation. The miracle, is that there has been one man for so long to make releases so far…

pjb: that might have been true for some time, but right now we have two regular maintainers and a steady stream of 3rd party contributions
