Topic: Common Lisp Object System


  
  Common Lisp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Common Lisp is a Lisp; it uses S-expressions to denote both code and data structure.
Common Lisp also includes a toolkit for object-oriented programming, the Common Lisp Object System or CLOS, which is considered by many to be one of the most powerful object systems available in any language.
Applicative Common Lisp, a full-featured theorem prover for a subset of Common Lisp.

 Common Lisp -- Facts, Info, and Encyclopedia article   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Common Lisp, commonly abbreviated CL (not to be confused with (additional info and facts about Combinatory logic) Combinatory logic which is also abbreviated CL), is a dialect of (A flexible procedure-oriented programing language that manipulates symbols in the form of lists) Lisp, standardised by ANSI X3.226-1994.
Common Lisp is most frequently compared with, and contrasted to, (An elaborate and systematic plan of action) Scheme—if only because they are the two most popular Lisp dialects.
Common Lisp is defined by a specification (like (An enzyme found in mammals that can catalyze the deamination of adenosine into inosine and ammonia) Ada and (The 3rd letter of the Roman alphabet) C) rather than by a single implementation (like (additional info and facts about Perl) Perl).

 Common Lisp - Myths and Legends
Lisp systems are particularly good at supporting rapid prototyping - you develop your application the same way as you think about it: from the top down.
Lisp was big at that time, compared to other applications of the time because it packed a lot of useful functionality and there was a limit to how small that functionality could be made.
Objects that survive for a long time in the innermost circle are eventually ``aged'' and become part of a second generation.

 CLOS Object System
CLOS (Common Lisp Object System) is a dynamic, object oriented extension to Common Lisp that provides a powerful general purpose programming language.
The whole point of the object oriented approach is to take something and to customize it without having to change the code, without having to go back and edit any of the lines of code that already exist.
The object may be the value of a function parameter or returned as a functional value.

 CLOS - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Common Lisp Object System, a powerful system for object-oriented programming which forms part of Common Lisp.
Therefore, methods are not considered to live within *Classes*; they are conceptually grouped into generic functions instead, a form of mixin.
CLOS doesn't provide encapsulation; that is considered to be the job of a different part of Common Lisp, the package system.

 Common LISP Hypermedia Server
Related Systems: A system for distributing documents is briefly reviewed in the COMLINK section because it uses the Common LISP HTTP server as a WWW interface and because it embodies form-processing technology useful for the Web.
The current server is excellent for rapid-prototyping precisely because it builds on Common LISP and provides a fine-grained vocabulary of operators which are easily combined and modified according to evolving application requirements and draft protocol standards.
The Common LISP HTTP Server implementation was driven initially by the desire to provide WWW access to email servers and associated document or survey databases, which were built on the COMLINK System.

Beyond general window system abstractions, the automatic form processing in COMLINK forms relies heavily on an important CLIM abstraction: the presentation system controls how the user specifies or perceives arbitrary LISP objects.
