We have just finished building the CLX that comes with X.V11R1 and are ready to test it out. Although there is a mailing list for CLX discussions (cl-windows), I thought I might mention one problem we had with building it. The compile-clx (in defsystem) has some problems in that there are many deftypes in the various files that are not evaluated when compiling. To solve this, we had to wrap each deftype in a (eval-when (eval compile load...)) to force evaluation. This approach worked fine. Alan C.

In a recent piece of mail on CLX under Lucid, Alan Schultz mentions
that deftypes are not handled at compile time. This problem exists in
Sun Common Lisp 2.0.2, but was fixed for Sun Common Lisp 2.0.3. See
the "Read This First" which came with the Sun Common Lisp release for
details on how to load the patches which create 2.0.3 out of 2.0.2.
