[Openmcl-devel] Speaking of sockets...

[Ron Garret]

Figured it out.  MAKE-SOCKET doesn’t do pathname expansion.  This works:

? (make-socket :address-family :file :type :stream :connect :passive :local-filename (namestring (pathname "~/test.sock")))
#<CCL::FILE-LISTENER-SOCKET #x30200105E4CD>

rg
