Allow more than one keyword constructor for defstruct. Bug and fix from Rob Warnock.
Add source location info for defstructs and deftypes. code/defstruct.lisp: o Save source info for defstructs code/macros.lisp: o Save source info for deftypes. compiler/globaldb.lisp: o Add comments that the info type source-location defvar also includes defparameter, defconstant, defstruct, and deftype.
Change uses of _"foo" to (intl:gettext "foo"). This is because slime may get confused with source locations if the reader macros are installed.
Remove _N"" reader macro from docstrings when possible.
Merge intl-branch 2010-03-18 to HEAD. To build, you need to use boot-2010-02-1 as the bootstrap file. You should probably also use the new -P option for build.sh to generate and update the po files while building.
Restart internalization work. This new branch starts with code from the intl-branch on date 2010-02-12 18:00:00+0500. This version works and LANG=en@piglatin bin/lisp works (once the piglatin translation is added).
o Marking more translatable strings that were previously missed. o Regenerated cmucl.pot and cmucl.po's. o Fixed some problems with ko/cmucl.po introduced in last checkin.
Oops. The restart-case :reports only have a stream parameter.
Mark translatable strings; update cmucl.pot and ko/cmucl.po accordingly.
Mark translatable strings; update cmucl.pot and ko/cmucl.po accordingly.
Add (intl:textdomain "cmucl") to the files to set the textdomain.
Merge Unicode work to trunk. From label unicode-utf16-extfmt-2009-06-11.
o Lots of spelling fixes from Paul. o Add unicode codepoints in final-sigma.lisp (in case the characters there don't show up correctly). o Support partial-fill in READ-INTO-STRING.
Fix issue reported by Albert Reiner, cmucl-help, 2006/10/20, and fix another issue with uninitialized &aux variables. (defstruct (foobar (:constructor make-foobar (xxx &key (aaa nil) (bbb nil) &aux (foobar-data xxx) (aaa (or aaa (getf foobar-data :aaa) 1)) (bbb (or bbb (getf foobar-data :bbb) (1+ aaa)))))) (aaa (required-argument) :type fixnum) (bbb (required-argument) :type fixnum)) (make-foobar nil) -> #<foobar :aaa 1 :bbb 2> But CMUCL gives type errors. To fix Albert's issue, modify CREATE-BOA-CONSTRUCTOR to keep track of the &aux vars separately from the other arglist vars. Adjust CREATE-VECTOR-CONSTRUCTOR, CREATE-LIST-CONSTRUCTOR, CREATE-STRUCTURE-CONSTRUCTOR, and CREATE-FIN-CONSTRUCTOR to take an extra arg for the &aux vars. For CREATE-STRUCTURE-CONSTRUCTOR, we only put declarations for the other arglist vars. To make sure we store the right kinds of objects into the slots, we also wrap (the <type> init) for each initial value. Also CLHS 3.4.6 has an example of a boa constructor using an aux variable without an initializer. CMUCL was not handling that right. Modify CREATE-BOA-CONSTRUCTOR to change the initializer to use (or <aux> slot-default-value) to get the correct default value into the slot if the aux variable doesn't.
Merge code from main branch of 2005-12-17 to ppc gencgc branch. Still doesn't work of course.
A name that is a declaration cannot be the name of a deftype, condition, or defstruct, and vice versa, so signal an error if we try to do that.
Don't use NTH to determine if a list is a named structure because the list may not be a proper list. Instead, use a special version of NTHCDR that will exit early if we reach the end of a non-proper list.
The CLHS entry for *PRINT-LENGTH* says If an object to be recursively printed has components and is at a level equal to or greater than the value of *print-level*, then the object is printed as ``#''. Adjust the default structure printer and %print-unreadable-object to do this. This fixes the PRINT-LEVEL.2, PRINT-LEVEL.6, PRINT-LEVEL.8, and PRINT-LEVEL.9. test failures.
- restarts when a package lock is triggered by DEFSTRUCT redefinition: disable the package-definition-lock instead of the package-lock (from Helmut Eller)
Add a function EXT:UNLOCK-ALL-PACKAGES, that disables both the structural and the definition locks for all existing packages. Add an additional restart to the PACKAGE-LOCKED-ERROR signaling points that allows the user to disable all packages then continue. Package locks are initialized upon startup, so the unlocking only takes effect during the current session. However, this function doesn't suffer from the problem that affects LISP::*ENABLE-PACKAGE-LOCKED-ERRORS* (which is bound by LOAD so can't be set from an initialization file).
Dynamic-extent closures for x86. Use boot15.lisp for bootstrapping. (defun prn (fn) (print (funcall fn))) (defun foo (x) (flet ((bar () x)) (declare (dynamic-extent #'bar)) (prn #'bar))) => The closure for BAR is allocated from the stack * src/compiler/node.lisp (lexenv): Add slot dynamic-extent. * src/compiler/ir1util.lisp (make-lexenv): Add keyword arg for dynamic-extent. * src/code/defstruct.lisp (%redefine-defstruct) [#+bootstrap-dynamic-extent]: Definition that corresponds to to the clobber-it restart. * src/compiler/ir1tran.lisp (process-dynamic-extent-declaration): Rewritten. * src/compiler/x86/alloc.lisp (make-closure): Add constant arg dynamic-extent, and use it for allocation. * src/compiler/ir2tran.lisp (ir2-convert-closure) [#+x86]: Pass dynamic-extent to the make-closure vop.
Structure predicates used to signal an error when applied to an object that is an obsolete instances. Reported by Andre Valente on cmucl-imp. * src/code/defstruct.lisp (typep-to-layout): Add no-error arg. (%defstruct): Call typep-to-layout with no-error true.
Remove package nicknames USER from COMMON-LISP-USER. Add a new package COMMON-LISP which LISP uses, so that COMMON-LISP no longer has the non-ANSI nickname LISP. To bootstrap, use boot13.lisp as target:bootstrap.lisp with pmai's build scripts, and do a full compile. * src/bootfiles/18e/boot13.lisp: Change for all the package changes. * src/code/exports.lisp: New package common-lisp, which lisp uses. * src/tools/worldload.lisp: * src/tools/setup.lisp: Use cl-user instead of user. Use lisp:: instead of cl::. * src/tools/worldcom.lisp: * src/tools/snapshot-update.lisp: * src/tools/pclcom.lisp: * src/tools/mk-lisp: * src/tools/hemcom.lisp: * src/tools/config.lisp: * src/tools/comcom.lisp: * src/tools/clxcom.lisp: * src/tools/clmcom.lisp: * src/pcl/defsys.lisp: * src/motif/lisp/initial.lisp: * src/interface/initial.lisp: * src/hemlock/lispmode.lisp (setup-lisp-mode): Use cl-user instead of user. * src/code/save.lisp (assert-user-package): * src/code/print.lisp (%with-standard-io-syntax): Find cl-user package instead of user. * src/code/package.lisp (package-locks-init): Add lisp. (package-init): Don't add user nickname to cl-user. * src/code/ntrace.lisp (*trace-encapsulate-package-names*): Add common-lisp. * src/code/hash.lisp (toplevel): * src/code/hash-new.lisp (toplevel): Use in-package :lisp instead of :common-lisp. * src/code/float-trap.lisp (sigfpe-handler): Don't qualify floating-point-inexact with ext:. * src/pcl/simple-streams/strategy.lisp (sc): * src/pcl/simple-streams/null.lisp (null-read-char): * src/pcl/simple-streams/internal.lisp (allocate-buffer) (free-buffer): * src/pcl/simple-streams/impl.lisp (%check, %read-line) (%peek-char, %read-byte): * src/pcl/simple-streams/file.lisp (open-file-stream) (device-close): * src/pcl/simple-streams/classes.lisp (simple-stream) (device-close): * src/pcl/macros.lisp (toplevel): * src/pcl/braid.lisp (lisp::sxhash-instance): * src/pcl/env.lisp (toplevel): * src/compiler/generic/objdef.lisp (symbol-hash): * src/code/stream.lisp (read-sequence, write-sequence): * src/code/macros.lisp (defmacro, deftype): * src/code/eval.lisp (interpreted-function): * src/code/defstruct.lisp (defstruct): * src/code/debug.lisp (debug-eval-print): Use lisp:: instead of cl::.
Structure slot names can be any symbol. Found by Paul Dietz. * src/pcl/std-class.lisp (*allow-funny-slot-names*): Renamed from *allow-keyword-slot-names*. * src/pcl/methods.lisp (legal-slot-name-p): Allow any symbol if *allow-funny-slot-names* is true. (shared-initialize): Print the value of the :slot-name initarg. * src/code/defstruct.lisp (parse-1-dsd): Treat nil as symbol when used as a slot name.
Store user-specified slot names in DEFSTRUCT-SLOT-DESCRIPTIONs, which is necessary for conforming SLOT-EXISTS-P and MAKE-LOAD-FORM-SAVING-SLOTS. To bootstrap, using pmai's build scripts: 1. Copy boot10.lisp to target:bootstrap.lisp and do a full build. Choose the CLOBBER-IT restart when asked (for an unknown reason, it doesn't work to do this programatically.) 2. Leave the bootstrap file where it is and do a full build with the Lisp produced in step 1. 3. Remove the bootstrap file and do another full build. * src/bootfiles/18e/boot10.lisp: New file. * src-dsd/code/defstruct.lisp (defstruct-slot-description): Rename slot %name to name. (dsd-%name): New function. (dsd-name): Function removed. (parse-1-dsd): Set dsd-name to the slot symbol. * src-dsd/pcl/std-class.lisp (*allow-keyword-slot-names*): New variable. (initialize-internal-slot-functions) <around structure-effective-slot-definition>: New method binding *allow-keyword-slot-names* to true. * src-dsd/pcl/methods.lisp (legal-slot-name-p): Allow keywords if *allow-keyword-slot-names* is true.
* src/code/defstruct.lisp (defstruct): Handle uninterned struct names.
Add package locks. Bootfile boot8.lisp allows this to build without a cross-compile (or just select the CLOBBER-IT restart). - two extra PACKAGE-LOCK and PACKAGE-DEFINITION-LOCK slots added to the package structure. These can be modified using the EXT:PACKAGE-LOCK and EXT:PACKAGE-DEFINITION-LOCK accessors. - macro EXT:WITHOUT-PACKAGE-LOCKS that evaluates forms with all package locks disabled (this is done by binding the global variable CL::*ENABLE-PACKAGE-LOCKED-ERRORS*) - new PACKAGE-LOCKED-ERROR condition - in SETF-FDEFINITION-HOOK and in the DEFMACRO, DEFSTRUCT, DEFTYPE and DEFCLASS defining forms, check whether the definition would modify a package whose definition-lock is enabled, and signal a package-locked-error condition with restarts that allow you to unlock the package or ignore the lock - in EXPORT, UNEXPORT etc check whether the target package is guarded by a package-lock, and signal an error - disable package locks when loading a subsystem - disable package locks in certain areas of PCL and in the MAKE-LOAD-FORM support of the compiler, where code is generated inside system packages at runtime
Update CLOS STRUCTURE-CLASSes on structure changes. * pcl/braid.lisp (ensure-non-standard-class): Add optional parameter existing-class. (reinitialize-structure-class): New function. (toplevel): Push it on kernel::*defstruct-hooks*. * code/defstruct.lisp (*defstruct-hooks*): New variable. (%defstruct): Call these hooks. * tools/pclcom.lisp (find-package): Remove pcl::reinitialize-structure-class from kernel::*defstruct-hooks*.
Clean up code. Remove the bootstrap-conc-name reader conditional stuff that was introduced to fix the conc-name inheritance bugs. We keep the #-bootstrap-conc-name stuff.
* bootfiles/18e/boot[12].lisp: Bootstrap files for the lisp:class = pcl:class part. To get it booted from 18e, cross-compile using boot1.lisp as bootstrap.lisp in pmai's build scripts, then do a normal compile with boot2.lisp as bootstrap.lisp with the resulting Lisp. * code/byte-interp.lisp, code/defstruct.lisp, code/describe.lisp: * code/error.lisp, code/exports.lisp, code/hash-new.lisp: * code/hash.lisp, code/macros.lisp, code/misc.lisp: * code/package.lisp, code/pred.lisp, code/sharpm.lisp, code/type.lisp: * compiler/dump.lisp, compiler/fndb.lisp, compiler/globaldb.lisp: * compiler/proclaim.lisp, compiler/typetran.lisp, compiler/xref.lisp: * compiler/generic/primtype.lisp, compiler/generic/vm-type.lisp: Changes for to use kernel::class etc. * code/class.lisp (toplevel): Shadow class, built-in-class etc. (class): Give it conc-name %class-. (toplevel) [#+bootstrap-lisp-class=pcl-class]: Define old accessors. (everywhere): Use new class accessors. * compiler/generic/vm-fndb.lisp (%make-instance): Change from unsafe to flushable and movable. * code/ntrace.lisp (expand-trace, untrace): Changes for method tracing. * code/profile.lisp (profile, profile-all, unprofile): Method profiling. * pcl/*.text, pcl/bench.lisp, pcl/extensions.lisp: * pcl/fast-init.lisp, pcl/precom1.lisp, pcl/precom4.lisp: * pcl/structure-class.lisp, pcl/user-instances.lisp: Removed. * tools/pclcom.lisp: Changes for my PCL and lisp:class = pcl::class.
* code/defstruct.lisp, code/describe.lisp, code/error.lisp: * code/exports.lisp, code/hash-new.lisp, code/hash.lisp * code/macros.lisp, code/misc.lisp, code/package.lisp * code/pred.lisp, code/sharpm.lisp, code/type.lisp: Changes for lisp:class = pcl:class. * compiler/dump.lisp, compiler/fndb.lisp, compiler/globaldb.lisp: * compiler/ir1tran.lisp, compiler/ir1util.lisp: * compiler/node.lisp, compiler/proclaim.lisp, compiler/typetran.lisp: * compiler/xref.lisp, compiler/generic/primtype.lisp: * compiler/generic/vm-type.lisp: Likewise. * code/class.lisp (toplevel): Shadow class, built-in-class etc. (class): Give it conc-name %class-. (toplevel) [#-lisp-class-is-pcl-class]: Define old accessors. (everywhere): Use new class accessors. * code/byte-interp.lisp (load-type-predicate): Use kernel::structure-class instead of structure-class.
Fix bugs detected by Paul Dietz' ANSI test. * pcl/defs.lisp (make-class-predicate-name): Handle uninterned symbols. * code/defstruct.lisp (define-predicate): Don't error out on some vector objects. (dsd-inherited-p): Use dd-inherited-accessor-alist.
Handle BOA constructors with keyword arguments of the form ((key var) [default [svar]]). Bug noted by Paul Dietz; fix from Gerd Moellmann.
From Eric Marsden: fix typos in comments, signal more specific error types, remove some stale code, fix a few compiler warnings in the runtime.
Gerd Moellmann's port of SBCL's fix for the conc-name/structure inheritance bug (SBCL bug 127). Slightly modified to make building a little easier. Todo: After the next release (18e) is done, go through and remove the old bootstrap-conc-name reader conditionals. We want the #-bootstrap-conc-name versions.
DEFSTRUCT was not recognizing the option :conc-name or (:conc-name). (Noted by Paul Dietz.)
Checked in Brian Spilsbury's experimental Unicode, locales, and dialect support patchset. This lives on its own branch, so that people can play with it and tweak it, without disturbing 18e release engineering on the main branch. Bootstrapping has only been tried on LINKAGE_TABLE x86/Linux builds. A working cross-compile script is checked in under bootfiles/19a/boot1-cross-unicode.lisp. The script still leaves you with some interactive errors, on the cross compile, which you should answer with 2. See the mailing list for more information.
Give more meaningful messages for the continue and clobber-it restarts when redefining structures. Based on suggestions from Rob MacLachlan and Mike McDonald.
Fix from SBCL: 0.7.2.17: Merged MNA "fix for boa-constructor bug" sbcl-devel 2002-04-16 ... copied the fix to &optional arguments handling ... also test the &optional handling This fixes the handling of supplied-p args for &key and &optional args of boa-constructors. Also did a couple of code cleanups in the process.
Mega commit to bring RELENG_18 branch in sync with HEAD in preparation for release tagging 18d.
Second attempt at using new cvs server. Hopefully mail system config problems are fixed now. This revision fixes an omission from a previous rev that added support for :print-object and :print-function defstruct options. The default method created was calling DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINT with only two arguments. It seems to work correctly now.
Add support for ANSI specified :print-function and :print-object defstruct options while preserving previous behaviour. ANSI processing is enabled by ext:*ansi-defstruct-options-p* which must be NIL while compiling CMUCL, PCL, CLX, HEMLOCK to avoid flushing defined print-functions. This switch is turned ON when worldload builds a core with PCL in it.
Change most PROCLAIMs to DECLAIMs.
o Fix for slot-accessor-form; the raw data form was not correctly evaluating the 'object argument.
This set of revisions brings the RELENG_18 branch up to HEAD in preparation for an 18c release.
Fix define-predicate for list based structures. The predicates were generating an error when passed a Nil argument due to an attempt to use ELT to access the name; the name is now accessed via NTH for list based structures.
Fix for the redefining of structures which was broken by the previous commit.
Revised fix for obtaining the structure slot accessor function given the defstruct-slot-descriptor which was broken for inherited slot as the dsd-accessor was set to Nil in this case. Rather than setting dsd-accessor to Nil for inherited slots, add a new function dsd-inherited-p to test if an accessor has been inherited, and always setup the dsd-accessor slot with the name of the accessor function. This allows the structure printer and inspect to easily obtain a slot accessor function.
DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINT was puking on certain cases of structures that included other defstructs. An example of a failing case is: (defstruct a1 s1) (defstruct (a2 (:include a1)(:conc-name a1-)) s2) as seen in Hemlock source. The problem was that the dsd-accessor slot is documented to sometimes contain NIL but default-structure-print blindly called fdefinition on the sometimes NIL value. The fix here is to compute the slot accessor name from the conc-name and slot-name. NOTE: There is code in ir1tran that also blindly calls fdefinition on the contents of dsd-accessor. Don't know if this is a latent bug.
Correct a program-error which should have been a simple-program-error. Rework some error's into simple-type-error's. Based of patches from Peter Van Eynde.
Fix a multitude of problems with the non-pretty print code in default-structure-print; noted by Bill Newman.
The complex-float the signed-array features are now standard, so remove unnecessary conditionals.
This (huge) revision brings the RELENG_18 branch up to the current HEAD. Note code/unix-glib2.lisp not yet included -- not sure it is ready to go.
Gray streams support: * Rename the 'stream structure class to sys:lisp-stream. * Add a new none hierarchical 'stream built-in class which inherits from: instance, t. * Hack in the new stream class as a mixin for the structure base lisp-stream class which now inherits from: stream, structure-object, instance, t. * Add a new 'fundamental-stream standard-class which includes 'stream as a mixin, and add PCL hacks to allow this to be redefined after PCL is loaded to be (defclass fundamental-stream (standard-object stream) ...). * Add appropriate support to the base stream functions to dispatch to the Gray stream functions for the handling of fundamental-streams. Some of the lisp-streams encapsulating CLOS streams still need a little work.
This revision alters the condition type hierarchy to be in compliance with the ANSI spec. A default report method is attached to the serious-condition class and many of the uses of (error "string" arg..) in filesys.lisp and package.lisp were changed to use, for example, (error 'file-error :format-control "string" :format-arguments (list stuff)) The end result is no obvious change to what the user sees, and enables one to establish a handler to catch the particular error type as mentioned in the "Exceptional Situations:" section of the CLHS write-ups. There probably are still some places where the error types need to be fixed. Also, a bug in with-package-iterator which caused failure with a null package-use-list was fixed, and some file functions (like truename and probe-file) now disallow a wild pathname.
Long-float support.
Add support for storing complex float values in raw structure slots. This allows consing to be avoided when writing to these slots as for the float type.
Fix doc. typos "the the" -> "the".
New value for the :pure option of defstruct, :substructure. Purify will place the instance in the static space but still move the substructure lists and arrays to the RO space. This is needed for compact-info environments which cache the last name in the instance which needs to be scavenged, but the hash arrays can still be placed in the RO space (the cache name was not being scavenge which could cause a false hit if very unlucky). Shall uses this new option in compiler/globaldb.lisp after people have had a chance to bootstrap in this new support.
Attempt to deal with FINs that have FINs as their functions. Interesting because of PCL/byte-compiler interactions.
Fix headed boilerplate.
Missed a use of UNDEFINE-STRUCTURE.
Added support for non-hierarchical "structures" when defining default accessor closures. Changed UNDEFINE-STRUCTURE to take a class, since that's how compiler/proclaim is calling it.
Fill in the direct-superclasses field.
Fix default-structure-print to just call the accessor (so that it handles raw slots.)
Pad double-float slot offsets w.r.t. DD-RAW-LENGTH, not DD-LENGTH.
Changed %COMPILER-ONLY-DEFSTRUCT to be magically called by IR1tran, since eval-when doesn't do the right thing.
Don't say "previously compiled" unless we really have compiled it before.
Tweaked compilation of an incompatible defstruct definition to compare to the previously compiled layout, rather than the current run-time definition. As well as being somewhat more intuitive, this was needed to support redefinition of the CLASS class.
Store the print function in the basic-structure-class-print-function instead of the structure-class-print-function so that it will work for funcallable-structure-class'es also.
Fix arg order to print-unreadable-object.
Changed DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINT to work on funcallable structures (always prints unreadable.) Updated comment to reflect the possibility of funcallable structures having print functions.
Added %make-funcallable-instance stub. Don't add in slot for layout in fin, because that's already done.
Set LAYOUT after %REDEFINE-DEFSTRUCT, since it might have elected to use some old layout.
Fixed BOA constructors to ignore package when determining if a slot appears as an arg.
First cut at funcallable-structure support. %funcallable-instance interpreter stubs. Initialize STRUCTURE-CLASS-CONSTRUCTOR. Changed ALTERNATE-METACLASS to be inherited by structures that include it. Update arg syntax of REGISTER-LAYOUT and use :DEFSTRUCT-LAYOUT option so that we can incompatibly redefine forward referenced (but not defined) structures. Fix structure redefinition warning formatting.
Rip out NS-BOOT conditionals.
new structure branch & tuning, see new_struct
In TYPEP-TO-LAYOUT, signal LAYOUT-INVALID instead of a simple-error.
Move structure-object to type-boot. Add support for pure structure types & make dd types pure. Don't register layout if we are compatibly redefining. Generally fix up refinition compatiblity checking.
Need to register layout if it was forward referenced but not yet registered.
Fix negated sense of test on raw-type in %defstruct.
In ENSURE-STRUCTURE-CLASS, don't check for inconsistency if not *type-system-initialized*.
Tweaked interface to insured-find-class so that it takes a predicate, not a meta-class. In ENSURE-STRUCTURE-CLASS, if we are really making a structure class, pass in a constant predicate so that we don't have to do FIND-CLASS at cold-load init time.
Fix typeerror.
Fixed raw constructors to work again. Changed copy-structure to check arg type using STRUCTURE-OBJECT declaration, rather than looking at the class, since the class might not be initialized yet (during cold load.)
Fix old mentions of TYPEP-TO-STRUCTURE. Put %COMPILER-ONLY-DEFSTRUCT in an eval-when (compile eval), since (compile) doesn't work right nested.
If bootstrapping, set the layout-info in the old layout when null.
Don't use load-time-value to get layout in the constructor, instead reference as a constant. Avoids cold-load init problem & saves space
Fix FIND-NAME-INDICES. Write SLOT-ACCESSOR-FORM to share code between raw accessors and the constructor. Fixed vector structure constructor to use AREF to store names. Constructors now actually work when there are R/O slots, and we also don't multiply fetch the raw data when initializing it. In typed accessors & vector constructors, intersect the vector element type with the slot type.
fixed stuff
Many changes to make it compile and sort of work. Lots of bootstrapping conditionals.
*** empty log message ***
Put the eval-when back around the (declaim (optimize (safety 1))) so that we can cold load defstruct. And put in a comment as to why it is there.
Added an ``(in-package :c)'' to get it back into the right package. Added a missing close paren.
Added COPY-STRUCTURE.
Changed DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINTER to conform to changes to the printer.
Changed the default structure printer to print slot names as keywords instead of unqualified symbols as per X3J13 cleanup STRUCTURE-READ-PRINT- SYNTAX:KEYWORDS.
In PARSE-1-DSD, don't blow away the accessor when we are just redefining the same structure. For shadowing to be a problem, the accessor must be of a supertype. In DSD-NAME, intern the symbol in *PACKAGE* if the accessor is NIL. In DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINT, directly use DSD-%NAME, rather than messing around creating a symbol.
Fixed PARSE-1-DSD to correctly recognize conc-name accessor duplication when there is multi-level inheritance. Now we look at the ACCESSOR-FOR info and see if it is an accessor for the same slot.
Make stuff work when conc-names make a subtype slot accessor have the same name as the supertype accessor.
Added make-load-form support. Changed the pretty printer to not indent quite as much.
Changed to use native pretty printer instead of XP.
Wrapped an eval-when around the declaim because defstruct is cold-loaded before proclaim.
Added type check on conc-name option.
Added optimize (safety 1) to make sure that some sort of syntax checking is done.
Fixed typo in error message.
Merged with systems-work sources as of this date. This mainly picked up some fixes to allow multiple default constructors.
New file header with RCS header FILE-COMMENT.
Fixed default-structure-print to work when *print-circle* is T.
Removed the STRUCTURE-PREDICATE function, as this is now done directly by typetran.
Changed to use make-structure to create structures directly instead of structurifying vectors.
Replaced use of alloc-g-vector with a call to make-array.
Changed %REDEFINE-DEFSTRUCT to copy the old INCLUDED-BY into the new DD when the redefinition is not incompatible. This precents recompiling and loading of DEFSTRUCT STREAM from blowing the system out of the water, etc.
Added some stuff to %DEFSTRUCT to notice when a structure is being incompatibly redefined, signalling a correctable error. If proceeded, we FMAKUNBOUND the old accessors. Also, %DEFSTRUCT is now responsible for updating the INCLUDED-BY slot for the DEFINED-STRUCTURE-INFO, since the compiler's STRUCTURE-INFO may not be EQ. I also moved %DEFSTRUCT to be beginning of the DEFMACRO expansion. It was previously at the end, which caused %%COMPILER-DEFSTRUCT to create FUNCTION KIND and WHERE-FROM entries for the slot accessors. If they are defined as functions in the global environment, then it just lets the default expression for these info types realize that they are functions. With any luck, this won't cause any horrible bootstrapping problems.
Replaced all uses of %primitive structure{-index,}-{ref,set} with the magic function structure-ref and it's setf method.
Oops, can't use length on a structure.
Fixed default-structure-print to use structure-index-ref instead of svref. Also fixed it to use XP when *print-pretty* is true.
Chagned the slot setter functions to take the arguments in the corrent order.
Moved MIPS branch onto trunk; no merge necessary.
Generate setf functions with the args in the right order.
Removed structurify, 'cause it's duplicated in struct.lisp.
Merged changes into mips branch.
Changed to OR in the result of STRUCTURE-PREDICATE to be an IF, since that is optimized more easily.
Use vm:vector-structure-type instead of %g-vector-structure-type when under the new-compiler.
Fixed use of %primitive structure-set to take the arguments in the correct order. Changed use of memq to member :test #'eq
Merged MIPS changes with 3/8 version (1.7) Added #+new-compiler before typep-to-structure
Finished flushing header-ref.
Initial MIPS branch.
Changed header-{set,ref} to structure-{set,ref}.
Fixed merge lossage.
Fixed up handling of default print functions a bit. Use of the default print function is represented by having a NULL value for the DD-PRINT-FUNCTION (instead of the highly broken use of the function object for DEFAULT-STRUCTURE-PRINT.)
.../systems-work/code/defstruct.lisp, 07-Feb-90 16:41:55, Edit by Chiles. Fixed '(:constructor) bug that failed to create a default constructor. /usr/lisp/code/defstruct.lisp, 26-Jul-89 19:10:17, Edit by Mbb. Structures that include another structure now inherit it's print-function if they do not have their own. This inheritance may be suppressed by supplying :print-function without a name. This is a cleanup. /usr/lisp/code/defstruct.lisp, 26-Jul-89 16:23:50, Edit by Mbb. Made BOA-constuctors only half that... They now allow &key args. Also made DEFSTRUCT warn when you try to use a keyword as a slot name. This catches users who accidentally do (defstruct foo (:constructor ...) <slots>) instead of (defstruct (foo (:constructor ...)) <slots>).
Changed DEFSTRUCT expansion to only use #' on non-symbol PRINT-FUNCTIONS, so that named print functions can be defined after the structure.
Added code to set up the new INFO types TYPE DEFINED-STRUCTURE-INFO and TYPE PRINTER. These get around problems with the printer &c thinking that the DD from compilation of a structure definition is the actual loaded one.
Changed STRUCTURIFY from a macro to an inline function so that interpreted DEFSTRUCT constructors work.

This DVD and the Fender DVD are both very helpful for learning or refreshing your knowledge of basic soldering techniques. I purchased this mainly for the segment on hollowbody guitars and was not disappointed. Dan's illustration of how to make a cardboard template for wiring up the harness and how to install it in the guitar helped me to make money on a similar job.
I don't have a Gibson guitar, but this helped me with my custom wiring job and learning some good techniques.
The DVD on How to wire a Gibson Guitar was dissapointing to me. I have the higest respect for Dan and his skills but he really through me for a loop when he substuted different wireing cable than what was inlcuded in the kit. I want to say thanks for the effort, but to save the novice builder confusion dont do the bait and switch. Thanks, Larry Denney
Similar to the Fender wiring DVD, not very 'exciting', but VERY useful and informative. I kinda wanted to see other Gibson variants, the V, the Explorer, Varitone, etc. Still...very nice video.
Good video - but I wish it had gone into much more detail about wiring vintage instruments from the beginning. Regardless, good tool for someone just learning how to wire up a Les Paul.
This is a great DVD if you are unfamiliar with Gibson/PRS/etc. electronics. Really great tips, and the section on loading and unloading an archtop guitar is worth the price of the DVD.

At Jagex, we are dedicated to doing our very best to have as small an impact on the environment as possible. Jagex aims to be a 100% carbon neutral company, by taking all measures possible to reduce our emissions overall and to offset all remaining emissions.
Jagex aims to have as small a carbon footprint as possible. Reducing energy consumption per head is one clear way. Minimising the use of air travel and use of cars are other ways, but also simply being conscious of the true cost of energy consumption has a positive effect.
As an e-business, Jagex still requires substantial amounts of electrical power. So where Jagex has the ability to choose in the UK - all our electricity is bought from Ecotricity, the clean technologies power company.
Wherever we have no choice in energy provider (such as at our server locations around the world) we aim to offset all the emissions caused by our power consumption. These funds support projects which promote the use of renewable energy, carbon sequestration and low energy alternative technologies. We also offset the emissions of all business air travel.
Jagex recycles as much of its waste as possible. This includes paper, metal and plastics. It also seeks to use suppliers who produce the products in environmentally sound and sustainable ways and take steps to minimise the amount of waste generated through our daily activities.

A better view in all weathers: Audi offers a wide range of different configurations for exterior mirrors – electrically adjustable and/or heated and/or folding mirrors, also with the optional memory function if desired.
A particularly handy feature if your vehicle is used by different drivers is the memory function, available as an option in conjunction with electrically adjustable seats with memory function. Various settings are stored together with the seat position and associated with the respective driver's key. In addition, the memory function automatically tilts the mirror face of the passenger-side exterior mirror downwards when reverse gear is engaged, providing the driver with a better view of the kerb.
The exterior mirror heating responds automatically – depending on the weather conditions and humidity. The heating system uses heating foils on the reverse sides of the mirrors and switches their power on and off in cycles. The system heats as necessary depending on the temperature and the vehicle speed. The power consumption is regulated by the continuously changing internal resistance of the heating system. This ensures that the exterior mirrors are always supplied with the suitable level of current. At high humidity or low temperatures, the heating quickly removes any condensation or ice, making sure the driver has a clear view to the rear.
Electrically folding exterior mirrors prove especially useful when taking the vehicle through the car wash or negotiating narrow garages or tight spaces where every inch of space counts. You can fold them in using the electric mirror adjustment unit in the driver door and out again at any time by turning the knob.
Automatic anti-glare exterior mirrors protect the driver from headlight dazzle by automatically and progressively dimming when the light coming from behind is too bright. This prevents dangerous situations arising from glaring light reflections in the mirrors. Automatic anti-glare mirrors measure the light intensity by sensor and darken independently in response to excessively strong light. An electronic control unit varies the darkening effect quickly and continuously according to the current ambient light conditions.

Both Sides of the Fence
A Tosa resident since 1991, Christine walks the dog, cooks but avoids housework, writes and reads, and enjoys the company of friends and strangers. Her job takes her around the state, learning about people's health. A Quaker (no, they don't wear blue hats or sell oatmeal or motor oil), she has been known to stand on both sides of the political and philosophic fence at the same time, which is very uncomfortable when you think about it. She writes about pretty much whatever stops in to visit her busy mind at the moment. One reader described her as "incredibly opinionated but not judgmental." That sounds like a good thing to strive for!
More "voter, schmoter."
Sometimes, the only thing you can say is "what she said!"
In looking for a sample ballot for the Tuesday, April 5, election (not so easy to find), I ran across an editorial by Journal Sentinel community columnist and fellow Tosan Annette Mertens. The crux:
If you don't know who's running, don't vote. Don't guess. Don't disrespect the lives of those who fought and died for this privilege by taking voting so lightly as to choose a candidate at random or just because he happens to belong to a certain party.
There are two crucial positions to fill, County Executive and Supreme Court Justice, and we are saturated with misinformation about the candidates, most of it from third party advertisers. If all you know is from ads, sensational chain emails, and robocalls, don't vote.
Oh: and here, in all its badly scanned splendor, is the sample ballot, just in time. That, too, deserves a little more care if this democracy is as important as we say it is.
Princesses and prairie girls
Spent a good part of today with my girls, Catherine Middleton and Laura Ingalls Wilder. I turned on the royal wedding while finishing paperwork in a hotel room because I wanted to see The Dress. Even for someone who's not a "girly girl," a princess's wedding gown holds some allure. It was worth enduring Barbara Walters to see it.
A splendid dress it was, though the lady with the green and orange mumu eating Raisin Bran in the lobby sniffed and proclaimed it "plain." Simple, elegant--a beautiful dress for a beautiful young woman who doesn't really need much adornment. Some commentators are hoping its style heralds the end of the porn/prom/wedding gown, a swing from Lady Gaga back to Grace Kelly, and I hope they are right.
I never understood why girls (here's a nod to a few boys who did, too) played at being princess. It seems a lonely life, restrictive to the extreme. Hats and gloves and tiny waves and smiles. Not really much fun: the dresses didn't compensate enough.
Though there was a brief moment when I imagined marrying Prince Charles. I thought I could cheer up this lonely, unhappy boy. And then there were the horses and palaces. Horses, mainly. I wondered whether I could convert the family to Golden Retrievers and get rid of those stumpy Welch Corgis.
But that didn't last long. It was boring. And unhappy boys, well, they don't usually get happy, no matter what happens.
When we were kids, we played pioneers, not princesses, our imaginations fired by Little House on the Prairie and Little House in the Big Woods. Barefoot in calico or overalls and dirty was more my style. Not shopping but building lean-tos and cooking over wood fires: our parents would have killed us had they known what we were up to. Luckily, benign neglect was the parenting style of the day.
So I was delighted a few hours after the glut of pagentry to hear an interview with the author of The Wilder Life. Wendy McClure not only lived in the same kind of imaginary world I did as a child but set out to follow Wilder in her life as well as in her works.
Either you know this love for old things, old times, old values or you don't. If you do, you'll resonate with the woman who called in to tell of her fifth grade year. Each day, the teacher read to the class for a full hour from Ingalls Wilder books, working through the entire series. And the stories and their messages still informed the caller's life today.
I can't imagine a fifth grade teacher doing that now. How sad, because there's nothing better than stories that tell us who we were, who we are, and who we might still become. Imagine a class listening quietly for an hour, no electronic devices or screens involved. Pa would have said "These times are too progressive. Everything has changed too fast. Railroads and telegraph and kerosene and coal stoves--they're good things to have, but the trouble is, folks get to depend on 'em."
We spend a lot of time teaching girls to want the princess life. I'm not sure why. I do know that Kate Middleton, intelligent and lovely as she is, doesn't really have anything much to say yet. Ingalls Wilder stories remind us "that the things that are truly worthwhile and that will give you happiness are the same now as they were then--courage and kindness, loyalty, truth, and helpfulness are always the same and always needed."
Maybe a royal wedding will lift our spirits a bit, shake us from our paralyzing sadness. The folks in the woods and the prairie knew that too much "sadness was as dangerous as pathers and bears. The wilderness needs your whole attention."
After we've toasted the royal couple, time to put aside the tiara and pick up the hoe.

Any idea what the stats were for 1993?
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
just counted a quick 18 top eights in Stuttgart1993 and more points than Daegu but 3 golds and two World Records ; not too bad.
One thing you wont see again, British athletes with 2 WRs in a WC/OG
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Don't you just love to revel in your own percieved failures. You could also say 7 medals 2 gold 4 silver 1 bronze best champs since 93 or even better 2nd best world champs ever
you love to compare todays athletes to those of the past so how about 95 when we only won 1 medal in a male track event in fact only 4 athletes got medals at all (kelly got 2) and only 1 gold.
How about 97 when our only gold came in a relay (this doesn't count in your book) and we only got that 13 years later after US were DQ'd
2001 was a corker we got 2 medals
and 2003 3 medals no gold and 30th on the medal table
2005 Paula came to the rescue with an individual gold to go with our 2 relay bronzes
even if we go back to the 80's we didn't do any better
83 7 medals but worse colours than this time
87 8 medals but only 1 gold
91 7 medals and 2 gold but once again we did better this time
So apart from 93 this was our best medal total ever and things seem to be moving in the right direction
There is loads of great young talent coming through and some of our athletes now consistently deliver when it counts.
Of course it's not perfect, the lack of finalists is worrying and there are still too many people who perform badly at champs but this eutopia of athletics achievement that you are always harping on about No1 never existed and No2 even if it did, get over it an try taking a little bit of pleasure in what's on offer right now, instead of constant carping.
PS we did some AMAZING flag waving in Daegu you may have seen us on tv
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
72 - Like you, I see 12 top 8s as a real disappointment. Difference is you seem to be revelling in the disappointment. Time to find another sport? Or maybe I could just share my dvd archive of the good old days and you could lose yourself in reverie (no bad thing!!).
You remind me of my Dad, a member of BASC. I rang him after Mo's loss in the 10k. I said I hadn't been so disappointed by a sporting loss since Edwards in Atlanta. He professed he wasn't at all bothered and said in fact he hadn't been surprised or disappointed by any GB loss since Bedford in 72.
(Actually, he wasn't disappointed or surprised by Bedford losing - he laughed and told me that he was only 6th best in the world anyway, thus reducing me to tears (I was only 6, I hasten to add)). It took me years to forgive him and then he cheered when Coe beat Ovett in Moscow. Unforgiveable.
Maybe I should save this stuff for analysis.

"We onlookers can only agree. This is certainly not the finished or even nearly finished product that we might have expected for our £11,000,000 per annum investment. Notwithstanding the national delight at the medals accrued by Mo's maturity, Greene's composure, Ennis's courage, England's joyful and elegant opportunism, Idowu's solidity and Turner's luck, there is much to be concerned about one year away from London."

Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Revelling in British disappointments ... you are crazy
I just will not accept the bulls hit about the Golden era we are supposedly in or about to enter, or UKA and AW trying to convince me that all is well with British athletics ; it is NOT and attempts by various Flag wavers to spin the situation and to state otherwise are just smokescreen stuff, which goes down well with bureaucrats at UKA head office.
The current bunch of leaders in our sport are a hopeless group who love their financial packages but have achieved little better than was achieved for long periods before 1997 when they came into existence.
Mo Farah suceeded by his own dedication and Greene is not coached by some UKA creep even from abroad and neither is JE; no,no,no, the uncomfortable fact is that our male sprinters of reason times have mostly disappointed, our women sprinters are second rate; our male middle distance runners, traditonally fairly sound from periods before and after the WW2, are beyond comment; MO is out on his own; we haven't got even a reasonable Steepler;hammer, javelin, shot nowhere to be seen; our field events in the women are dreadful; long distance runners... Paula is not doing them now!!!
I do not revel in Brit disappointments... the Daegu results were nothing special, whether the FWers like the facts or not. Believe it or not, there are even a few ex- athletes, coaches and officials who agree that things aint so wonderful with our elite or alleged elite as the Cheerleaders here and elsewhere like to pretend.
49 athgletes on Podium potential funding( a frigging joke to plenty) and we got ten top Eights; nearly a third were injured , coming back from injured or not in form to even go to the WC.
We will soon be left with even poorer and less participatory club athletics, which everyone with their eyes open now knows continues apace, people like Tom McNab, formerly a Chief National Coach. UKA are only interested in a Medals which is sad obsession on this Forum and AW in the UK... good elitist stuff for some, but not me.
How much cash should the Tax payer be expected to lob out for half a dozen medals.??

Cram Expects Success From GB Athletes at London 2012
02 October 2011
"I am very excited about next year," he told the BBC. "GB will have eight to 10 good medal chances at the London 2012 Olympics and if they can convert six to eight of them, that will be great."... naming Hannah England, Lisa Dobriskey and Steph Twell as potential 1500m finalists and over course Mo Farah as a medalist.
Last edited by bushop on Thu Nov 17, 2011 6:32 pm, edited 1 time in total.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I was ecstatic to read about Twell's return to competition, but let's wait a little with the prognostications, Crammy
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Just qualifying for our W1500 team will be tough enough. If Charlene Thomas finally gets a little luck I have a sneaky feeling she'll get a berth. I can certainly see her beating England and Dobriskey in the Trials (they'll be peaking for the Games, she'll be peaking for the Trials). Steph has the greatest potential and I'm pretty sure she would have run close to sub-4 this year had it not been for the injury. I also think she is a far better tactician than England or Dobriskey. Fingers crossed she makes a full recovery (I guess we'll have a better idea of the long term affect of the injury on her after a XC season). I wonder if that bad an ankle injury will affect her ability to sprint and we might see her move to 5000 earlier than expected (she'd have a better chance of getting into the team even now).
Also can't discount Weightman and Smith, who set PBs again this year and should be in 4:04 territory in 2012, if not faster.
The one they should all worry about is Jemma Simpson. If/when she moves up I think she'll be a regular member of the team (not least because so many of the Trials finals turn in 800 races.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Will England and Dobriskey be pre-selected?
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
There will be no pre-selections (the 2012 selection policy is already published on UKA's website).
Crucial bit:
The first two eligible athletes in the final of each discipline at the Trials will be automatically
nominated for that discipline provided that either
i) they have achieved a Current UKA "A" standard (as set out in point 9 below) in the discipline; or
ii) they placed in the top eight in the discipline at the 2011 Daegu World Championship and have achieved at least one valid UKA "A" standard in the discipline at any time within the
Qualification Period.
The A standard is only 4:06. You can imagine a scenario where England, Dobriskey, Thomas, Twell, Smith and Weightman all line up with the A standard under their belt. That's a race I'd travel up to Birmingham to see! Ditto the men's 400H, where the A standard is 49.50. Everyone in our current top 10 would see that as within their range for next year. It's quite feasible that someone will run sub 49 and not go to the Games.
BTW, the 5k A standard is only 15:15. That must be tempting for Steph Twell. Reaching the London final at 5 would be a lot easier than at 15. Only Checa and Fleshman from outside Ken and Eth broke 15 mins this year. Who else is there to worry about? Abylegesse if she comes back (but she'll focus most likely on the 10)? Fleshman and Hudle? Bekele if she regains form.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Olympic spotlight won't daunt me, insists sprint hope Williams
Tuesday 4th October 2011
"Should Williams compete at the Olympics she will do so with no experience of performing at a senior global event after she opted not to go to August's World Championships in Daegu, against the wishes of the head coach of UK Athletics Charles van Commenee – a decision she still stands by."
Can anyone make sense of her not going? Seems like experience counts for something.
Last edited by bushop on Thu Nov 17, 2011 6:31 pm, edited 1 time in total.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I wish I had the time to find the exact quote, but the reason cited was something along the lines of her being inexperienced in big time senior events, and having never run at such a daunting event that the world champs are. You know, exactly the same as London will be, except London will be worse. Worst decision ever by an athlete?
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Didn't Lewis Francis do the same thing?
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Jodie was giving priority to her education (didn' want to miss start of her final school year, just like Dix did in 2007. How'd he do in Beijing?
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
If it had been me i would have gone but i'm not about to critizise anything Jodie and her team do, as they have done everything perfectly so far. I going to guess she knows what is best for her far better than any of us do.
She's a very smart girl
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I also think that Jodie Williams should have gone to Daegu since she would have earned a priceless excerience of a global championships environment, without any pressure placed on her to perform, that would serve her well in London next summer. Even as a mere relay member.
I don't think her studies were a real issue in the matter, she would have hardly missed a thing during the opening week of the school season, but whatever the grounds behind her decision it is fully respected.
MLF actually opted out of the Sydney Olympics to focus on winning the World U20s, Daisy, which he did, but in hindsight he must have regretted it most looking back on his career so far.
Hannah England and Lisa Dobriskey have got an edge over the others in the women's 1500m as they both already hold the A standard, current As will be coming in from April 1, but I think they're going to fill the two of the three places if fully fit.
Charlene Thomas, if over her injury woes, should be favourite to fill the third spot while I think Steph Twell should turn to the 5000 where things are more open - however, she should leave it up to late winter to assess her progress and make up her mind where to set her sights on thereon.
Last, I was also disappointed by the lack of top eight places in Daegu but for the British team to come out with seven individual medals was definitely a success, best haul since 1993. A positive message out of the whole picture is that Britain matched their medal target out of a team that slightly underperformed, without a single relay medal, meaning that they performed nearer the floor with a lot to spare on the ceiling of their potential.
At the end of the day, it's far easier to sort out your relays within a year than to put up new individual contenders and Crammie has got some good reasons to feel excited - first time I've heard him so in a long while.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Now I remember. I definitely thought it was a missed opportunity at the time. Also, think of Linsey MacDonald and Ade Mafe. Both made the Olympic finals very young and as it turned out that was their last opportunity. Would have been a shame if they had missed out because everyone anticipated they'd be even better.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
But if they hadn't experieence such intense competition at such a young age they may have lasted longer. What did MLF lose out on by missing sydney ?? He went to Athens and won a gold medal. I don't know his lack of subsequent achievement would have been any different had he gone in 2000. In fact we may have seen a faster decline
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Possibly. The controlled experiment is hard to set up.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Just my opinion - it's not competing that burns youngsters up.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
goodness, can it be... I agree with Mump Boy on his last observation; we can never really draw convincing evidence about anything to do with an athletes potential future performances based upon precocity, but if an athlete's best was achieved at a very early stage in their career, and there are plenty to whom that applies all over the athletics world, surely,... thasts just life... such athletes may or may not have regrets, but don't we all ???
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Over training too early, too much competition and too much pressure all contribute to athletes not fullfilling their potential.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Also add in a likely earlier biological maturity and potential liability to certain injuries, either natural or training induced.
Therefore, I agree above that competing at a major championships doesn't result in the burn-up of any youngster.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Please don't put Jodie Williams into medal contention yet.She's really young.She ran 11.17 once.Too much pressure from Great Britain and it's fans.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I don't anyone is expecting a medal
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Jodie Williams isn't in a medal position, at least as things look now, but is definitely good enough to make a final, particularly in the 200m. From there on, especially at her age, none can really tell how much she can progress within the following 10 months, therefore nothing could be ruled out. Allyson Felix got an Olympic silver before she turned 19 so it turns on how good you are on the occasion.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
What I meant was, it's not (IMO) the one or two or however many "important" competitions a(n) (young) athlete has during the year, it's the 12 sessions per week, 4-8 hrs a day, months on end, that put most pressure on the body. But yes, if some coaches will increase the work load in relation with the number of competitions (which they shouldn't), then you could say it's "too much competition".
Hope this made sense, I'm not feeling very clear today
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
i don't disagree with that in fact i know for a fact that it happens but i think psychological reasons are just as important as physical ones for burn out at a young age
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Let me tell you that Mara Yamauchi won the Berlin 10km in 32:19, her fastest time since 2006, so the battle for places in the British team really heats up following Claire Hallissey's Olympic A qualifier of 2h29:27 in Chicago.
Liz Yelling is also edging back into form with a 72:14 over the half marathon in windy conditions.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
And let's wait and see what Jo Pavey does in New York.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I wish Hayley Yelling would run a marathon as well. Obv the drean trio would be Paula, Mara and Jo but i'd love her to get to 2012
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
By the way, for those who would like to check out UKA selection policy and current qualifiers, you can take a look here:
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
According to a tweet by Dalton Grant a little earlier on, British high jumpers are to be axed from funding going into the Olympic season. Very harsh decision, if it is so, as the country has got four five pretty good jumpers that will have to make it the hard way now. An Olympic silver by Germaine Mason, a European bronze by Martyn Bernard and top eight places in so many champs around don't warrant such a decision.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Only 2 of them made it to Daegu, and both went out in Qualification.
No one jumped higher than 2.28 this year.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Actually, Parsons jumped 2.31m indoors. Last year,though, Bernard was bronze medalist at the Europeans, had problems with injuries this term as I understand and further I think he's been working on some new things and they may have not bedded in yet. In my view, he's got definitely potential to hit heights like 2.34-2.35.
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
I think it's harsh on Bernard, who, yes, has had injury problems and has a proven record of performing well at championships. Mason hasn't done a thing since 2008 and should rightly go off funding and the rest just haven't performed when it matters- it's ok to say Parsons jumped 2.31 indoors, but a) that's not going to get you a medal at world level and b) it makes absolutely no difference if you don't replicate it at the championships.
Hopefully this will put fire in their bellies- there's amazing talent in our HJ rosta and it's one of those events in which it seems, time and again, it's just wasted...
Re: UK's London Olympic medal contenders
Yes, most likely a 2.31 jump won't get you a medal but it can be good enough for a top eight place and provides a very good platform to build towards heights like 2.33-2.34 the following season.
But I agree that the decision has been particularly harsh on Martyn Bernard, pretty poor call in my view on the part of van Commennee et al.
