Hi everyone,
I'm sorry if this has been discussed, but it seems like there is a
problem with defobject in CM 2.4.2, using openmcl on MacOS X.
Here is the code example with CM's output:
(defobject ex3 (i)
(freq)
(:parameters ins time dur freq))
(new ex3 :freq 440)
;; returns this
? ? #i(ex3 freq 440)
;; However, if I try to re-define the object with a change
;; (just a simple example)
(defobject ex3 (i)
(freq amp)
(:parameters ins time dur freq amp))
(new ex3 :freq 440 :amp 1)
;; this error is returned
? ? > Error in process listener(2): :AMP is an invalid initarg to
INITIALIZE-INSTANCE for #<PARAMETERIZED-CLASS EX3>.
> Valid initargs: #(:TIME :INS :DUR
:FREQ).
> While executing: CCL::CHECK-INITARGS
> Type :POP to abort.
Type :? for other options.

Any ideas why re-evaluating the defobject doesn't seem to overwrite the
previous one?
Thanks in advance,
