S-SYSDEPS abstracts:

• managing processes
• implementing a standard TCP/IP server
• opening a client TCP/IP socket stream
• working with process locks

S-SYSDEPS is considered stable code.

November 2005 - Created as a seperate project.

S-SYSDEPS is, by definition, written in ANSI standard Common Lisp but implemented using non-standard extensions. At the moment, ports for LispWorks (reference), OpenMCL, CMUCL and SBCL exist. Some other CL implementations are partially supported.

The S-SYSDEPS package is loaded using ASDF. There is an excellent tutorial on ASDF to get you started.

CL-USER 1 > (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op :s-sysdeps)

There is no mailing list for this project.
