Hey, Jürgen,

Thanks.

This is part of continuing work on the mtx native function thing I put up six months ago, and just for the sake of consistency, I was trying make all the mtx functions lambdas, but it's no problem to use a ∇ function when I need ambivalence.  (If I'd looked at how you implement lambdas and conditionals, I would have known the lambda approach wouldn't work...)

Speaking of mtx, per the note I sent you a couple days ago, have you had a chance to look into making the dlopen() in NativeFunction::try_one_file() use RTLD_LAZY instead of RTLD_NOW?  I don't think anyone but me is using mtx, so it's cool if LAZY isn't in your plans--it just means I patch the line when you put out a new SVN.

Thanks,
Henrik

Hi Henrik,

I believe I fixed the Segfault. You should now get
a DEFN ERROR instead with )MORE information.
SVN *1782*.

The reason is this:

1, Conditionals, i.e. COND →→ IFSTAT ←→ ELSESTAT ←←
    create 2 or 3 statements, one for COND, one for IFSTAT and
    optionally one for ELSESTAT.

2. GNU APL lambdas are limited to one APL expression (= one APL statement)
   and the expression must yield a value (and can therefore not be a branch).

3. The normal work-around for this limitation is to use a proper ∇-defined function.

Best Regards,
Jürgen
