[cl-store-devel] Installing CL-STORE on Windows using Clisp

[Elliott Slaughter]

I am attempting to install CL-STORE on Windows XP using Clisp 2.42 (MinGW).
I had some trouble getting asdf-install to work properly, so I just unzipped
the tar file of the latest version (0.7.2) into my adsf central registry and
loaded it with (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :cl-store)... It seems to work, at
the least the following test code worked properly (this is in emacs using
slime and clisp):

CL-USER> (setf a '(example (another list) (integers 1 2 3) (ratios 1/2 3/4)
(floats 1.0 3.14159) (strings "hello" "world") etc))
(EXAMPLE (ANOTHER LIST) (INTEGERS 1 2 3) (RATIOS 1/2 3/4) (FLOATS 1.0
3.14159) (STRINGS "hello" "world") ETC)
CL-USER> (cl-store:store a "test.out")
(EXAMPLE (ANOTHER LIST) (INTEGERS 1 2 3) (RATIOS 1/2 3/4) (FLOATS 1.0
3.14159) (STRINGS "hello" "world") ETC)
CL-USER> (let ((val (cl-store:restore "test.out"))) val)
(EXAMPLE (ANOTHER LIST) (INTEGERS 1 2 3) (RATIOS 1/2 3/4) (FLOATS 1.0
3.14159) (STRINGS "hello" "world") ETC)

So thats just fine, but I tried running the regression tests for CL-STORE
and they failed. When I typed (asdf:oos 'asdf:test-op :cl-store) I got:
component CL-STORE.SYSTEM::RT not found, required by #1=#<SYSTEM
"cl-store-tests" #x19F69781>
   [Condition of type ASDF:MISSING-DEPENDENCY]

I don't know if my system is working properly or not... since I didn't go
through the normal asdf-install methods, I don't know if there are other
dependencies I didn't satisfy... and I don't know if the tests are that
important or not.

Thank you for your assistance.
