GOLDEN COMMON LISP
DEVELOPER
GCLISP Developer, the most powerful
5th generation Object-Oriented development tool for
Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 95.
GCLISP Developer is the most powerful
and extendible, dynamic object-oriented development
system available for prototyping and developing advanced
PC-based applications.
Now, GCLISP Developer
gives you the power and performance of LISP, fully
integrated with the Windows environment. GCLISP Developer
is guaranteed to give you the added power and performance
you've been looking for...and, GCLISP Developer breaks
through integration barriers, shortens development time,
and takes up less space.
Simply stated: GCLISP Developer
is a superior environment for prototyping and developing
advanced applications.
Because GCLISP Developer is
integrated with Microsoft Windows, you can now develop
complete Microsoft Windows applications using this
powerful programming language. All the components of a
sophisticated graphical application can be constructed
right from the GCLISP development environment. And, with
the powerful integrated editor, interpreter, incremental
compiler and debugger, you can prototype under Windows -
fast.
Slash development time with this fully
integrated Windows development suite. Write, debug,
compile, and profile applications at any time throughout
the development cycle. With GCLISP Developer 5.0, all the
tools needed to go from application prototyping to
delivery are seamlessly accessible: GMACS source code
editor, interactive debugger, code tracer and stepper,
and customizable incremental compiler. Now, developers
can reclaim all the time typically wasted going through
endless iterations of coding, compiling, and debugging.
Functional prototypes can be implemented in a fraction of
the time it would take in C/C++.
Take advantage of the most advanced and
richly featured Dynamic Object Oriented language- ANSI
-standard CLOS. More robust
than the more fragile OOP languages, CLOS features
multiple-inheritance, methods supporting variable numbers
of parameters, dynamic conflict resolution in multiple
inheritance, and more.

GCLISP
DEVELOPER FEATURES & BENEFITS
Full Microsoft Windows 3.1 and Windows
NT integration.
Both the development environment and developed
applications run in a powerful, industry-standard
graphical environment that is rapidly becoming the
desktop standard.
Transparent access to extended memory:
Large applications can be written with no additional
programming required. End-users can automatically run
simultaneous multiple applications.
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE):
Application developers can easily construct programs that
transfer data to and from other applications such as
spreadsheets, databases, and word processing. LISP can
now manipulate, output and input data from existing
Windows applications such as spreadsheets and databases.
Supports Common LISP and ANSI Standard
CLOS:
Common LISP functions and data types are included, as
well as interpreter and compiler support for full lexical
and dynamic scoping. Applications can be easily ported
between GCLISP Developer and other LISP environments
running on mainframes, workstations, minicomputers and
other PCs.
Optimizing 32-bit Compiler and
Incremental Compilation:
Fast and efficient code generation. The compiler is
integrated into the development environment and
incremental compilation dramatically shortens the
edit-compile-test cycle.
Interactive debugger runs with compiled
and interpreted code:
Fixes program errors efficiently. The debugger enables
programmers to get backtrace and stack information about
both compiled and interpreted code, and is invoked
automatically when an error is signaled during execution.
From the debugger, programmers can inspect the stack at
any frame and see the arguments for each function call.
Image saving facility:
Decreases memory requirements by permitting custom
programming environments which contain only the
components of the language needed to support the
application. Also, image files are portable between
Windows NT and Windows 95 platforms.
GMACS program editor with over 250
editing functions:
Fast, accurate editing of program source code directly
from within GCLISP Developer and Windows.
Gold Hill Windows
Provides a foundation for developing and delivering
sophisticated windows applications under GCLISP
Developer. The windows environment supports bit-mapped
graphics, mouse, multiple windows, fonts, color,
scrolling, pop-up menus and command menus. Gold Hill
Windows uses the FFI subsystem to interface to Microsoft
Windows. Includes a user's guide providing hands - on
examples.
32-bit Foreign Function Interface (FFI)
with direct argument passing, foreign pointers and
foreign structures:
Permits access to large bodies of code written in
"C". "C" function calls can be
embedded with LISP Calls to user defined Dynamic Link
Libraries (DLLs) that are supported through this
interface.
Device Independent Bitmaps (DIBs):
A functional interface for manipulations of DlBs,
including loading, saving, re-sizing, bitbiting and
clipboard access. Allows embedding of graphics produced
with applications outside of GCLISP.
On-line Help:
Provides full documentation of functionality. Apropos
enables the programmer to find a symbol name, printing
the names of all currently defined LISP symbols that
contain a specified string. Documentation function
provides the syntax and usage of every GCLISP function,
macro or special form. Lambdalist function displays the
arguments for any function specified. Includes help for
all GMACS functions and all debugger and inspector
commands.
Documentation:
User's Guide contains a topical reference section that
describes in detail all components and features,
providing examples for most features. Extensive reference
manuals describe all GCLISP functions. GMACS Guide
provides a tutorial and user's guide to help both novice
and skilled GMACS users.
