Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: lmj () Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Add ABORT restart to threads Initial Comment: * "Implementors are encouraged to make sure that there is always a restart named abort around any user code so that user code can call abort at any time ... in some batch or multi-processing situations there may be situations in which having it kill the running process is more appropriate." http://clhs.lisp.se/Body/r_abort.htm * There's nothing to do inside the debugger with no restarts; the 'a' key in SLIME doesn't work. * Since bordeaux-threads does not permit a thread to kill itself, there is no implementation-neutral way of self-terminating a thread outside of invoking ABORT (or establishing some other restart beforehand). * User code which has already added an ABORT restart is OK, since the user's ABORT will hide the new topmost ABORT. * Peer pressure: these implementations define ABORT inside threads: ABCL, Allegro, Clozure, ECL, LispWorks, SBCL. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=351355&aid=3545986&group_id=1355 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
