Mike,
Perhaps you are already aware that the 'FOO.NRLIB' is not really a
temporary thing. This is where the compiler puts it's object files
prior to loading them. After compiling a spad file like this:
)co foo.spad
which assuming the the file 'foo.spad' starts with
)abbrev domain FOO Foo
...
will create the directory 'FOO.NRLIB', it is also possible (usually in
another session) to just load the file like this:
)lib FOO
and use it as you would any other code in the Axiom library.
After the fricas-1.0.3.spkg installation the Axiom library is located here:
$SAGE_ROOT/local/lib/fricas/target/x86_64-unknown-linux/algebra
This is where all the algebra-related object files are located.
Probably this is also a logical place to set as the default location
when Sage starts FriCAS. That way, after compiling some spad code in
Sage like this
sage: axiom.compile('''
)abbrev package FOO Foo
Foo():with
bar: Integer->Integer
== add
bar(x) == x+1
''')
sage: exit
Later you are assured that you can start Sage again and write:
sage: print axiom.eval(')lib FOO')
Foo will be automatically loaded when needed from
/home/page/sage-3.1.2.alpha4-sage.math-only-x86_64-Linux/devel/sage-main/sage/interfaces/FOO.NRLIB/code
sage: axiom.bar(1)
2
without having to re-compile the source for FOO again. The NRLIB would
remain there indefinitely until replaced or deleted by the user.
Regards,
Bill Page.
