USerial — v0.5.2011.04.21 released April 21st, 2011
Patrick Stein

I am releasing a new version of my USerial library.

This release extends the (make-slot-serializer ...) and (make-accessor-serializer ...) so that you can pass an existing instance into the unserializers with the :object parameter rather than having the factory form allocate a new instance.

This release also provides ways to serialize and unserialize from slots and accessors in other code to allow even greater flexibility:

(serialize-accessors* (:string person-name
                       :uint8  person-age
                       :string person-hair-color)
     *person-instance* :buffer buffer)

(unserialize-slots* (:string name
                     :uint8  age
                     :string hair-color)
     *person-instance* :buffer buffer)

The serialize-slots* and unserialize-accessors* macros are also available.

Here is the latest:

Edit: Special thanks to Elliott Slaughter. The above improvements came out of recommendations from him.

USerial — v0.4.2011.04.11 April 12th, 2011

Made an addition to the USerial library to support logging of binary messages (so far only cl-log supported).

(serialize-log :log-category :uint32 uint-to-log :string "string to log" ...)

Here is the latest tarball: userial_0.4.2011.04.11.tar.gz and its signature: userial_0.4.2011.04.11.tar.gz.asc.

Elliott Johnson provided me with some patches for my CL-FFT library so that it will work with Allegro modern mode (mlisp).

Thank you!

USerial Library — v0.3.2011.03.05 March 4th, 2011
Patrick Stein

I have released a new version of my serialization library. I hope no one has dug in too far on using it yet because I rearranged the interface a fair bit in this release. To accommodate more complex serializers and unserializers as well as supporting a with-buffer macro, the buffer is no longer the first argument to the serialize and unserialize methods. Now, it is a &key argument to the serialize and unserialize generics. Further, the serialize and unserialize generics also &allow-other-keys.

In an intervening and unannounced release, I added serializers for slots and accessors.

In this release, I have also really fleshed out the documentation and examples.

For instructions on obtaining and using the USerial library, please refer to the USerial library web page.

Edit: This had been v0.3.2011.03.04, but I made a minor update to add MIT License and correct a few glitches in the docs. Now, it’s v0.3.2011.03.05.

Animal Artwork and More Languages in iPhone Spelling App March 29th, 2010
Patrick Stein

I just finished up some animal artwork for my iPhone Spelling Toy. I also added translations for Japanese and German (in addition to the English, French, and Spanish that were already there). After I double-check the translations, I will get it uploaded to the App Store.

If you have any expertise in Spanish, French, German, or Japanese, I’d appreciate any feedback you can give me about the words I chose in those languages. Would they be the word one would think of when shown the picture? Thanks, in advance.
