Invoking DLLs through LISP   Message List

Re: [bangalore-lisp] Invoking DLLs through LISP

There *is* a way to do it. However, you are looking for a *nice* way to do it. I believe you are looking for a `foreign function interface (FFI)'. You should know something about C programming. Look in your documentation for `foreign function interface' or FFI or `system'. Let us know what you find. Then we can help you further. Can we get a free copy of KCL from the Internet? Or at the very least, some user documentation for it?

Hmm. Very interesting you are using KCL. Who is this for? This is not ANSI Common Lisp you're using?

Hi All,
 
I need help in invoking system libraries(DLLs) through lisp.I have searched through the net & found articles & examples on how to do it through LispWorks & ACL. However, I need to accomplish this through a version of lisp referred to as Kyoto Common Lisp, 1984 version. Specifically, I need help in following :
 
1. Is there any way to invoke a dll (windows library) through the lisp

2. Can we execute system commands through the lisp?(e.g calling an executable from the lisp code, or running some script/batch file...)
Any help is appreciated.
