Receiving Flymake error in Windows & Ubuntu Emacs for PHP - windows

I am receiving this error.
Error (flymake): Flymake: Failed to launch syntax check process 'php' with args (-f test_flymake.php -l): Searching for program: no such file or directory, php. Flymake will be switched OFF
I am on windows 7 with emacs 24 GNU Emacs 24.1.1 (i386-mingw-nt6.1.7601)
There is an article which highlights this error but it is referring to checking /etc in linux however I am on windows. http://sachachua.com
This is the currently relevant part of my .emacs, what can I do to get it working.

(define-key php-mode-map '[M-S-up] 'flymake-goto-prev-error)
(define-key php-mode-map '[M-S-down] 'flymake-goto-next-error)
Edit:
I have now tried this in ubuntu 12.04 as well and receive the same error.

It looks like flymake can't find the PHP interpreter. Try adding an explicit hint about where to find PHP.
One way you could do this is by adding the following defun to your .emacs:
(defun my-flymake-get-php-cmdline (source base-dir)
"Gets the command line invocation needed for running a flymake
session in a PHP buffer. This gets called by flymake itself."
(list "C:\Path\to\PHP\php.exe"
;; Or the path to the PHP CLI executable on the Ubuntu machine you mentioned.
(list "-f" source "-l")))
Then modifying the flymate-php-init you're using now into this:
(defun flymake-php-init ()
"Use php to check the syntax of the current file."
(let* (
(temp
(flymake-init-create-temp-buffer-copy 'flymake-create-temp-inplace))
(local
(file-relative-name temp (file-name-directory buffer-file-name))))
(get-cmdline-f 'my-flymake-get-php-cmdline)))
This advice is heavily based on this answer from someone else using flymake on Windows for PHP. You might also find that answer helpful, since their situation is similar to yours.

Flycheck UsePackage with C++11

I use use-package for my emacs configuration.
Unfortunately I cannot properly configure the flycheck package to work with C++11 extension.
Here what I have so far:
;; == Flycheck ==
(use-package flycheck
:ensure t
:defer t
:init
(global-flycheck-mode)
:config
(setq flycheck-clang-language-standard "c++11"))
Although I set the proper variable, the flycheck gives me an error on c++11 syntax (e.g. auto i = 10).
What am I missing?
I think I had the same problem once. I cannot test it right now (will do it later today) but what I finally did was adding a hook to c++-mode rather than setting flycheck-clang-language-standard variable.
Here is code from my init file.
(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook
(lambda () (setq flycheck-clang-language-standard "c++11")))
You can try to use it in your use-package.
EDIT
Okay, I just checked it. When in my init.el file I have only
(require 'flycheck)
(flycheck-mode)
(setq flycheck-clang-language-standard "c++11")
flycheck highlights auto variable in a cpp file and I can see in the minibuffer following information.
rvalue references are a C++ extension
When I change my init.el file to
(require 'flycheck)
(flycheck-mode)
(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook
(lambda () (setq flycheck-clang-language-standard "c++11")))
There is no error.

Emacs + SLIME + SBCL (Windows)

I'm attempting to get Emacs, Slime and SBCL to work together on a Windows 7 machine. I use Linux typically, so I'm not experienced with the process. The problem is that I get this error when I attempt to start SLIME: Searching for program: permission denied, sbcl
Here's my Emacs 24 init.el:

(defadvice lisp-mode (before my-slime-setup-once activate)
(my-slime-setup-once))
My SBCL path is C:\Program Files\Steel Bank Common Lisp\1.2.7\sbcl if that makes any difference. Any help would be greatly appreciated
On mine I had to do this to get it working on Windows:
(setq slime-lisp-implementations '((sbcl ("C:\\Program Files\\Steel Bank Common Lisp\\1.2.8\\sbcl.exe" "--core" "C:\\Program Files\\Steel Bank Common Lisp\\1.2.8\\sbcl.core"))))

Emacs: cmdproxy.exe has encountered an issue and needs to close

I opened up emacs today and I got an error when I started typing into the #include:
This only happens when I start typing. At first I thought it had something to do with my ~/.emacs file so I opened it up and commented certain things. Eventually I found that when I comment the following line the problem goes away:
(ac-config-default)
I'm using yasnippet and auto-complete packages in my lisp file for my editor. The problem seems to be the above line when using auto-complete This is the full script of my ~/.emacs up to that point:
(require 'cc-mode)
(load (expand-file-name "~/quicklisp/slime-helper.el"))
;; Replace "sbcl" with the path to your implementation
(setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl")
(setq-default c-basic-offset 4 c-default-style "linux")
(setq-default tab-width 4 indent-tabs-mode t)
(define-key c-mode-base-map (kbd "RET") 'newline-and-indent)
; start package.el with emacs
(require 'package)
; add MELPA to repository list
(add-to-list 'package-archives '("melpa" . "http://melpa.milkbox.net/packages/"))
; initialize package.el
(package-initialize)
; start auto-complete with emacs
(require 'auto-complete)
; do default config for auto config
(require 'auto-complete-config)
; THIS LINE IS THE PROBLEM:
(ac-config-default)
Is there something wrong I've done here? Something I may have forgotten to do?
First try running emacs as admin and see if the problem goes away, I've had trouble with permissions issues in windows before similar to this.
The error is almost certainly caused by the gtags autocomplete source for C.
If you are not using gtags, you can likely fix the problem by removing the source from autocomplete.
(add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook
(lambda () (remove-from-list 'ac-sources 'ac-source-gtags)) t t)
Not a perfect solution, but a possible one.

Installing ECB for Aquamacs on OSX Mavericks

I am a complete novice at both OSX and Emacs, so unsurprisingly I'm struggling to install ECB on Aquamacs.
I followed the instructions given at https://docwhat.org/aquamacs-2-3a-and-marmalade/ using Aquamacs 3.0, but when installing the ecb-snapshot package I get the following errors:
ecb-semantic-wrapper.el:41:1:Error: Cannot open load file:
no such file or directory, semantic-ctxt
jn-file-tree.el:31:1:Error: Cannot open load file: no such file or directory,
jn-tree-node
jn-tree-node.el:32:1:Error: Cannot open load file: no such file or directory,
jn-utils
jn-tree-view.el:31:1:Error: Cannot open load file: no such file or directory,
jn-window
jn-window.el:44:25:Error: Invalid lambda variable
(parent jn-window-container)
test.el:31:1:Error: Cannot open load file: no such file or directory,
jn-tree-view
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
You shall better rely on el-get to install it.
Here is my personnal config to make it works:
;; =========== EL-Get =============
;; See https://github.com/dimitri/el-get
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/vendor/el-get")
(unless (require 'el-get nil 'noerror)

(let (el-get-master-branch)
(goto-char (point-max))
(eval-print-last-sexp))))
(require 'el-get)
(require 'el-get-status)
(setq el-get-byte-compile nil)
;; Load the local recipes
(add-to-list 'el-get-recipe-path "~/.emacs.d/el-get/recipes")
;; (setq el-get-sources '(cedet
;; ))
(setq el-get-sources
'((:name ecb
:type git
:url "https://github.com/alexott/ecb.git"
:load "ecb.el"

))
(setq my-packages
(append '(el-get)
(mapcar 'el-get-source-name el-get-sources)))
(el-get 'sync my-packages)

slime-fancy not loading with emacs sbcl slime windows configuration

I have slime with sbcl working in emacs 24.1 but can not get a slime repl to open.
I can use M-x slime to make a connection to sbcl in a inferior-lisp buffer but I can not invoke the slime-repl or get a nice lisp auto-indent when editing lisp files even though I am loading the slime-fancy contrib in .emacs. I don't get any error messages during start-up.
When I try M-x slime-repl I get [No match].
my .emacs file:
(setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl")
(add-to-list 'load-path "c:/home/bin/emacs/site-lisp/slime/")
(require 'slime)
(require 'slime-autoloads)
(slime-setup '(slime-fancy))
I used this method for the installation:
http://www.pchristensen.com/blog/articles/installing-sbcl-emacs-and-slime-on-windows-xp
I have noticed a pattern that almost everything I try with Python and Clojure works as described and almost nothing I try related to common lisp works. I have also tried cusp with eclipse. I am willing to try yet another approach if there is something more recent for common lisp in windows.
After playing with Sujoy's answer and trimming it down to get it to work, I realized my original problem was caused by the (require 'slime) statement. The following .emacs file gets the slime repl to open as expected.
(setq inferior-lisp-program "sbcl")
(require 'slime-autoloads)
(slime-setup '(slime-fancy))
Only 'slime-fancy will not setup the REPL. Try the below snippet. Put it in a buffer and eval.
Of course, you do not need to setup the hyperspec root as well, but that helps a lot :)
EDIT: missed out on the autoloads I am using, so here's the full config.
the keybinding (using minor-mode keymap, global mapping can be used just as easily)
(define-key my-keys-map (kbd "<f5>") 'slime)
the autoloads
;; slime mode
(autoload 'slime "my-slime" "Slime mode." t)
(autoload 'slime-connect "my-slime" "Slime mode." t)
Here's my-slime.el
(provide 'my-slime)
(eval-after-load "slime"
(setq slime-lisp-implementations
(slime-setup '(slime-asdf
slime-autodoc
slime-editing-commands
