Common Lisp Implementation

Prerequisites

Supported Lisp Implementations

Currently, only SBCL is supported.

Required Infrastructure

• ASDF is used for compilation, loading and dependency management.

• Quicklisp is recommended for installation of dependencies.

Note

The network.spread system requires the libspread library (which is written in C). For installing the library, see C++ installation instructions.

Installation

1. Checkout cl-rsb system from “1.0” branch of https://github.com/open-rsx/rsb-cl

2. Install other additional systems:

   • cl-protobuf

   • network.spread

   • architecture.builder-protocol (optional)

   cd "${quicklisp}/local-projects"
   git clone https://github.com/scymtym/cl-protobuf
   git clone https://github.com/scymtym/network.spread
   git clone https://github.com/scymtym/architecture.builder-protocol
   sbcl --load "${quicklisp}/setup.lisp" --eval '(ql:register-local-projects)' --quit
   

3. Load cl-rsb (and e.g. the socket transport) with Quicklisp to pull in remaining dependencies:

   (ql:quickload '(:cl-rsb :rsb-transport-socket))
