[cffi-devel] CFFI and CLSQL

[Ricardo Boccato]

Hi,

I am trying to use CLSQL with CFFI and I bumped into an error while
trying to connect to an Oracle 9i database.

I am using clisp but the same error ocurred with allegro 7 (trial).

Basically, issuing the command:

(asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :clsql-oracle)

yields this at the debugger:

APPLY: too few arguments given to #<compiled-function
  #:|150 152 (cffi:define-foreign-type uffi-char (base-type) ...)-10-1-1|>
   [Condition of type system::simple-program-error]

I found out that making the following changes to the code seems to
solve the problem...

computador:~/lib/cffi$ darcs diff
diff -rN old-cffi/uffi-compat/uffi-compat.lisp
new-cffi/uffi-compat/uffi-compat.lisp
112,113c112,113
<     (:char '(uffi-char :char))
<     (:unsigned-char '(uffi-char :unsigned-char))
---
>     (:char :char)
>     (:unsigned-char :unsigned-char)

...but since I am new to lisp (and to cffi...and to clsql...;-) I
really have no idea of what I am doing. :-)

Thanks very much.
