Strangely I can't get the example working from the docs and serial lambda isn't a cakewalk ether. So if you got a working example please share it! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving

I understand where you're coming from. My organization is flexible and isn't ideologically committed to one particular platform. Microsoft's community promise is just that, a promise. It can be changed or revoked at any time in the future. I've been encouraging adoption of open system practices

Thank you Matthias for the historical information, it was interesting to learn that a porting project was sponsored by Microsoft in .NET's early days. Were any papers describing the efforts published? Porting Racket to .NET definitely is ambitious and as you have said, it seems unlikely .NET ha

[racket-users] race condition in handin server?

2017-01-16 Thread 'John Clements' via Racket Users
It looks like there’s a race condition—actually, I think I’m abusing this term—that occurs when the handin server runs out of memory while (re-)evaluating a checker module. Specifically, it appears that following such a failure, subsequent attempts to check this assignment simply enter a stalled

Thanks! I may wait for the next Racket release to test it out, so I won't know for a while whether this fixes my main issue, but I'm pretty sure it will. On Mon, Jan 16, 2017 at 8:13 AM, Matthew Flatt wrote: > Hi Rohin, > > Sorry for the long delay! I've pushed a repair for this bug. > > Matthew

This doesn't help anyone who's committed fully to a platform, but if one is not, or when one has the opportunity to evolve, it should be mentioned... When an organization emphasizes real open systems (which currently probably means HTTPS Web services, talking in XML or JSON, and perhaps SQL, a

At one point I was looking for Racket on .NET and the closest I could find was the following: https://github.com/Graham-Pedersen/IronPlot (it looks like its original name was IronRacket) and a scheme: https://github.com/leppie/IronScheme I have only just recovered them from my saved bookmarks and

MS asked us (mostly NEU) to investigate a port of Racket (then PLT Scheme) to .Net some 15 years ago. (They supported the 4-year project with a generous financial donation.) In the end, we had to admit defeat. Racket’s GUI framework (e.g, event spaces), its mapping to the control stack (continu
