I have built stumpwm using thread enabled clisp successfully. And the created stumpwm works great. However, the swank server doesnot work if started from ~/.stumpwmrc as below:
(load "~/.vim/slime/start-swank.lisp")
The swank server is indeed started as netstat -na shows it is lisening on port 4005. But telnet 127.0.0.1 4005 will report "connection is closed by peer". So that the slimv in VIM cannot connect to swank server.
If i start another clisp REPL and run (load "~/.vim/slime/start-swank.lisp"), then both telnet and slimv works ok.
Why doesnot (load "~/.vim/slime/start-swank.lisp") in ~/.stumpwmrc work ?
FYI, The stumpwm log:
Starting swank on port 4005

;; Swank started at port: 4005.
It seems ok but i cannot use stumpwm anymore !
From the clisp mailing list, i got a suggestion: We should modify ~/.vim/slime/swank-clisp as below:
(defimplementation preferred-communication-style () :spawn)
After running (load "~/.vim/slime/start-swank.lisp") to start swank server, the slimv can connect to swank server without any error.
Now slimv works great with clisp(with thread support) .
Regards!
