[comp.lang.lisp] CLOS

crm@duke.cs.duke.edu (Charlie Martin) (07/01/88)

I need some information on CLOS and Lisp-based OOP.

(1) How can I get a copy of CLOS or something clos to it?  (Sorry.)
    Does anyone know of a version specifically for KCL?  Would it
    require implementing new primitives or is it entirely in Common
    LISP?

(2) Can anyone give me a little history of CLOS, LOOPS etc?

(3) Can anyone suggest some discussion I could read about using CLOS,
    LOOPS etc?

Thanks very much,

I have heard that Common Lisp Object System should be a part of the
Common Lisp standard. I have tried to find it in various versions of
Common Lisp implementations and I have not found it. 

In which implementations of CL is CLOS a part of CL?

Is there a public domain version? How can I get it?

Any personal views of CLOS compared to Flavors.

Please email me the answers. I will post a summary if I think it will
interrest you.

I've only worked with non-CLOS type LISP's and would like to try CLOS.

I was wondering what advantages does it have over the standard LISP?

And what LISP's does it come in?


Thanks,
