This bug report will be sent to the XEmacs Development Team,
not to your local site managers!!
Please write in English, because the XEmacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.
In XEmacs 21.2 (beta23) "Hebe" [Lucid] (sparc-sun-solaris2.7) of Thu Dec 16
1999 on sibelius
configured using `configure --site-prefixes=/usr/local
--prefix=/s/chopin/d/proj/meps/common/bin/xemacs-21.2.23'
Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:
The behavior of (read-buffer "Buffer: " "*common-lisp*") has changed
and is breaking Franz's ACL interface. Some how the default name is
getting passed buffer-name which then chokes on the type. A sample
backtrace is:
Signaling: (wrong-type-argument bufferp "*common-lisp*")
buffer-name("*common-lisp*")
read-buffer("Buffer: " "*common-lisp*")
eval((read-buffer "Buffer: " "*common-lisp*"))
eval-interactive((read-buffer "Buffer: " "*common-lisp*"))
eval-defun(nil)
call-interactively(eval-defun)
I glanced at the code for read-buffer to see if anything jumped out and
it did not. But then I am only a common lisper ;-) it may well still
be a very simple bug.
Thanks,
-Eric
