I would like to connect to an Oracle database with LWL Entreprise on a Debian box. I searched with google but I couldn't find what libraries are needed for this connection. So are some shared libraries needed or can I connect directly from LWL ? If I need libraries, where can I find Debian Woody compatible ones ? Thanks Marc

I used the function directory today. And found a) the keyword :check-for-subs is not longer valid for directory b) :directories does nothing? I have this files in /tmp ls -ld * drwx------ 2 frido frido 48 25. Nov 13:18 frido/ drwx------ 2 frido frido 72 25. Nov 06:42 gsrvdir1000/ drwx------ 2 frido frido 528 25. Nov 08:16 orbit-frido/ -rw------- 1 root root 0 25. Nov 07:04 session_mm_apache0.sem Now (directory "/tmp/" :directories t) CL-USER 95 > (directory "/tmp/" :directories t) (#P"/var/tmp/.sawfish-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.vmware/" #P"/var/tmp/session_mm_apache0.sem" #P"/var/tmp/.X11-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/.X0-lock" #P"/var/tmp/frido/" #P"/var/tmp/orbit-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.ICE-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/gsrvdir1000/") (directory "/tmp/" :directories nil) (#P"/var/tmp/.sawfish-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.vmware/" #P"/var/tmp/session_mm_apache0.sem" #P"/var/tmp/.X11-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/.X0-lock" #P"/var/tmp/frido/" #P"/var/tmp/orbit-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.ICE-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/gsrvdir1000/") That's the same! Now really funny: (directory "/tmp" :directories t) (#P"/user/" #P"/opt/" .... show all the files a level higher.... If I try: (directory "/tmp/t1" :directories t) I got this: (#P"/var/tmp/.sawfish-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.vmware/" #P"/var/tmp/.X11-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/frido/" #P"/var/tmp/orbit-frido/" #P"/var/tmp/.ICE-unix/" #P"/var/tmp/gsrvdir1000/") This seems all a bit strange to me. Is this supposed to be correct? My system is a Debian/Linux LW 4.2.7 Do I have to write my own test function to check if it's a Directory or not? Regards Friedrich

Well thanks for you answer, I filed a bug-report because I would think this would be a bug. I was probably wrong about that, I than would suggest that this is mentioned in the documentation. > > Do I have to write my own test function to check if it's a Directory > or not? > > Ways to exclude the directories include > > (DIRECTORY "/tmp/" :test 'PATHNAME-NAME) Well this is weird and not very user friendly IMHO: > > LispWorks also has the function FILE-DIRECTORY-P. I know and used it for listing dirctories. Thanks for taking the time answering. Regards Friedrich
