Replace "dynamic-space-size" argument by "space-size". #39
Conversation
This change was required to fix the problem of the SBCL executable that is running buildapp gobbling up the dynamic-space-size command line argument instead of letting it be a setting for the image that is being created.

@xach If you think this is OK, I will update the documentation to agree with it. On the other hand, if you think it's a bad approach, maybe you could tell me how better to handle |
The latter is needed to fix the issue of SBCL swallowing the `--dynamic-space-size` argument. The former is necessary because the version in the GitHub repository was missing the `--disable-ldb` initialization and handling code causing failure to compile.

This seems like a bug in SBCL to me. The image should get all command
line options unmodified. Do you know when this changed in SBCL?

I'm afraid I don't. I only last year started making applications for which I wanted to set the dynamic-space-size, so this has always failed for me. Is this something that could be fixed by inserting Looks like I also added the LDB-related option. I must have done this so long ago that I forgot doing it! Actually, it seems like disabling LDB should be the default, and the user should need to set an option to turn it on: for most cases it won't be helpful to drop into the LDB and will be better to simply exit. |
Maybe the argument to `macroexpand-1` needed a quote?
SB-DEBUG:LIST-BACKTRACE is deprecated.

If buildapp isn't getting `--dynamic-space-size` passed through,
there's either a bug in how it's saving the executable with
save-lisp-and-die, or a bug in SBCL. The `:save-runtime-options`
documentation says this:
:save-runtime-options
If true, values of runtime options –dynamic-space-size and
–control-stack-size that were used to start sbcl are stored in the
standalone executable, and restored when the executable is run. This
also inhibits normal runtime option processing, causing all command
line arguments to be passed to the toplevel. Meaningless if
:executable is nil.
I implemented this 15 years ago, specifically for buildapp
command-line processing.

If that argument is being passed through, it should appear in the dumper, correct? If so, I should be able to provide a test for this and add it to my MR, and you can check that and either accept the MR or see about the possibility of an SBCL bug. I'll get to this as soon as I can manage. |

I would expect it to appear in the dumper, yes.
I won't accept an MR that changes the command-line argument name,
though. And all the extra debug output is not acceptable either.

I'm not sure how I can demonstrate this issue without adding some debugging prints. The dumpfile has I am putting my test in a merge request that should not be merged -- instead you can check out the branch and run the test to see the problem. |
