Question

I intend to use buildapp for getting executables out of my lisp-code, but I do not understand how I can specify my .asd file for the project, for loading up the code.

I imagined some call like:

buildapp --asdf-file:/path/to/projectasdffile.asd \
         --entry-point package:main

But the examples provided by the homepage do not cover a call I recognize as equal, all the example calls look like a whole asdf definition itself. This would be a bit big for a whole project, especially as I already got a whole project definition (using asdf).

Therefore: Is there a way to use buildapp like the imaginary example call provided?

Answer 1

buildapp --load-path /path/to/project --load-system project should do the trick.
