Re: [Bug-apl] Emacs mode: can't create a function with no lines

[Elias Mårtenson]

Emacs Lisp has lots of similarities to Common Lisp, so you should be quite comfortable with it I think.

Could you add a similar call to message that logs the content of the variable "command" in the function "gnu-apl--send-network-command" (gnu-apl-network.el, like 98). Inserting the following as the first line in the function should do the trick:

    (message "Command=%S" command)

Elias

OK, I'm confused, That should not happen.

Could you change the code that displays the error (line 102 in gnu-apl-editor.el) to ad some logging?

This line contains the following form, followed by a few extra end-parentheses:

    (error "Unexpected error: " (second return-data))

Change this _expression_ to:

    (progn (message "Data:%S:End-Data" return-data) (error "Unexpected error: " (second return-data)))

In other word, surround the _expression_ with (progn ...) and add a call to the function message.

Then, reproduce the error so you get the "unexpected error" message, switch to the buffer *Messages* and send me the output of the command. I.e, the stuff that begins with "Data" and ends with "End-Data"

I just did a make clean, followed by a make under native.  Also verified that emacs is loading the one I just built.  Same errors.

Thanks.

Right, but did you compile the module in the "native" directory and point your Emacs to use it?

Hmm... I think I have an idea what's going on.

Can you try with the latest version of gnu-apl-mode? That means both the Elisp code as well as the name module.

Dear Elias,

Emacs version 24.3.1.

I always have to move the cursor or I get the other error.  So, after I move the cursor and attempt to save, I get the second error:

Unexpected error:

Thanks.

Yes, I've been told that this happens. I just can't seem to reproduce it though. Can you confirm that it doesn't happen if you move the cursor prior to pressing C-c C-c?

What version of Emacs are you using?

Elias

From within emacs mode I do:

and then save without adding any lines, emacs gives:
