CFFI, the Common Foreign Function Interface, purports to be a
portable foreign function interface for Common Lisp. The CFFI library
is composed of a Lisp-implementation-specific backend in the CFFI-SYS
package, and a portable frontend in the CFFI package.
The CFFI-SYS backend package defines a low-level interface to the
native FFI support in the Lisp implementation. It offers operators
for allocating and dereferencing foreign memory, calling foreign
functions, and loading shared libraries. The CFFI frontend provides
a declarative interface for defining foreign functions, structures,
typedefs, enumerated types, etc. It is implemented in portable ANSI
CL making use of the low-level operators exported by CFFI-SYS.
===> The following configuration options are available for cl-cffi-0.24.1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
EXAMPLES=on: Build and/or install examples
PDF=off: Build and install PDF documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
devel/cl-cffi: Update to 0.24.1.
Build the documentation from the texinfo sources in the distfile
instead of fetching pre-generated HTML, text and PDF files from a
separate site, where the copies published for this release were all
zero bytes. The PDF build pulls in TeX, so it sits behind its own PDF
option that is off by default.
Install cffi-toolchain, which cffi-grovel now depends on, plus the new
src/c2ffi and toolchain modules and grovel/common.h, which grovel
includes in the C files it generates.
Infrastructure for Common Lisp Ports: Overhaul
- Decouple ASDF initialization from devel/cl-asdf by creating a
dedicated port: devel/freebsd-cl-asdf-init.
- Convert devel/cl-asdf/bsd.cl-asdf.mk to USES=cl.
- Add devel/cl-asdf-sbcl
- Update ASDF configuration:
- Prefer newer ASDF versions, but only if the fasl is available.
- Replace license text with an SPDX license identifier.
- Simplify and clarify documentation.
- Remove the assumption that ${PREFIX} is /usr/local.
- Use uiop:getenv instead of a custom getenv function.
- Remove asdf:output-files customization to resolve output
translation issues.
- Improve output translations:

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

According to the Porter's Handbook (5.12.2.3.) default options must be added to
OPTIONS_DEFINE. This policy has been implemented only recently that's why we
have many ports violating this policy.
This patch adds the default options specified in the Porter's Handbook to
OPTIONS_DEFINE where they are being used. Ports maintained by
gnome@FreeBSD.org, kde@FreeBSD.org and x11@FreeBSD.org have been excluded.
