CLOS : need documentations

[Guillaume Thouvenin]

Hello,

In my class, I have to present an OOP langage. I've chosen CLOS (they
impose me :). Could you give me some links about the differents subjects
like :
- garbage collector (implemantation inside CLOS if there is one)
- threads (I've read that CLOS is strongly "threaded")
- function overloading
- operator overloadinf
- Inhertance
- etc...

Of course, I'm not asking you to do my homework (but if you want to ...:).
I'd just like good URLs that explain how CLOS deals with those things.

Thanks for your help,
Guillaume

PS : If someone is able to send me a code example, it will be nice.

Hi,
here is two URLs, I hope you'll be able to reach them, otherwise I have
nothing else for you.

Have fun with Lisp...

Look for this book at your department's library:

"Object-Oriented Programming in Common Lisp - A Programmer's
Guide to CLOS"
Sonya Keene
Addison-Wesley, 1989
ISBN 0-201-17589-4

Strictly speaking, CLOS is not a separate language, it is just the
object-oriented part of Common Lisp, so there is no separate CLOS
garbage collector, the same collector handles everything in the Lisp
system.

The ANSI Common Lisp standard does not define threads at all, IIRC. The
major CL implementations have multi-threading systems;
implementation-specific, though relatively similar due to their design
intention to stay somewhat compatible with the Symbolics threading
system. More on this in http://www2.cons.org/cracauer/lisp-threads.html
