Re: Getting rid of the "edit-compile-run-cycle" for Kawa

OK requiring 'http works for me, too.

I just check in a fix for this.

However, the original bug (builtin functions that produce HTML don't work with higher-order functions) is still there for me. For example:

;; -*- scheme -*-
(require 'http)
(apply html:b '("bold this " "and this ")) ; works
(list (html:b "also this ") (html:b "this too ")) ; works
(map html:b '("bold 1" "bold2")) ; fails.  gives:
jndi:/mon.dev.biographicon.com/temp2:7:1: called value is not a
procedure
#\newline


If I comment out that last line the servlet works as expected. So apply is working with html:b but map is not. This is with the latest snapshot.

This is a consequence of the "generalized apply" - we now allow application of types, vectors, and more. But the code-path taken when compiling map doesn't handle this. Disabling the error message (and just return the exp unmodified) causes a failure later. I'll look into it. -- --Per Bothner per@bothner.com http://per.bothner.com/
