I'm sorry about this bug report. Basically, a system I've been working
with for a long time has ceased to function in odd ways. I suspect it
has to do with exception handling changes recently introduced because
the symptom seems to be that a java function that I call that has a
timeout function continues to run even after the timeout is supposed
to have happened.

Unfortunately working on isolating the bug isn't something I have time
for so I've had to revert back to an earlier version.

Wish I could say more at this point, but perhaps just notice that this
is happening might ring a bell for someone.

Are you talking about ABCL? Or about something else? Which version of
ABCL? Trunk? 0.16?

Could you provide a bit more information on what the code is doing?

If you're not talking about J, but specifically about ABCL, then, no,
no bell yet. However, I'd like to look into it, ofcourse.


Bye,


Erik.

Both it appears. The java code being called is from the pellet
reasoner, which has timers which it checks while it does it's work,
and when they are exceeded it throws the exception.

abcl. I'll try to narrow it when I have some time.

Ok. The most helpful would be a version number (or repository revision
number) which starts failing.

>> Could you provide a bit more information on what the code is doing?

One of the things I mean to ask here: are you calling the lisp code
from the EVAL function? Or straight SYMBOL.execute() calls?

Alan,

Are we talking about your subsumption of Pellet under [LSW][1]?  If it
is easier for you, maybe you could provide a failing test case under
that software as I emulated the basic principles (i.e. "use JSS!") from
LSW a couple years ago for my own reasoner wrapper a couple years ago,
so I am pretty confidant that I could reproduce a failing test case
involving LSW in short order.
