gambit-hello

gambit hello

some hello world style experiments with the Gambit scheme implementation. http://gambitscheme.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Of interest might be some mingw cross-compilation examples.

Mingw

They were tried on a Fedora 19 host.

You need to cross compile gambit.

1./configure --host=i686-w64-mingw32 --enable-single-host
2make -j6 #depending on your cores
3sudo make install #/usr/local by default

each example has a mingw variant. So, for example:

• make hello, makes the hello example
• make hello-mingw makes an mingw variant of the example

when you run the resulting mingw binary in an xterm, a wineconsole is opened temporarily, unclear why. The small tst-mingw prog does not do this.

hello

1 make hello
2./hello

print a string and start a REPL

m3

from the gambit docs. shows how to interface with C

1make m3
2./m3

web-repl

web-repl is from the gambit dist, the only added value here is a mingw cross compile recipy.

1make web-repl
2nc 127.0.0.1 7000

The idea with a mingw web-repl, is to be able to remote debug a cross compiled gambit binary on a native windows install from the comfort of your Gnu/linux development environment.
