From e070d76166d249695f1d2ee0269cc5c91537e0c9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jose Antonio Ortega Ruiz Date: Fri, 12 Nov 2010 22:55:40 +0100 Subject: Make do with a single connection Separate connections for the REPL and Geiser commands was kind of neat, but it had the problem of synchronising the current namespace for both connections. A quick fix would have been to ask the scheme for the current namespace for every Geiser command in the REPL, but that, besides clunky, would add potentially prohibitive overhead for (real) remote connections. As it happens, using a single connection turned out to be not that difficult and relatively clean code-wise. We could even turn back to not use inferior schemes, and the net result of this refactoring would be the replacement of comint-redirect (which wasn't able to match the whole EOT token if it didn't arrive all at once) by transaction queues (which also makes geiser-connection's implementation cleaner). But using an inferior scheme has a dog-food value, and allows external processes to connect to the scheme being used by Geiser without further ado, which could be useful for debugging (although this is a lame excuse: nothing prevents you from starting a REPL server from emacs if you want).
