#172: DOCUMENTATION does not work for generic functions -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- Reporter: mevenson | Owner: ehuelsmann Type: defect | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: 0.28 Component: interpreter | Version: 0.27 Keywords: | -------------------------+-------------------------------------------------- DOCUMENTATION does not seem to be able to retrieve the docstring for generic functions:
{{{ (defgeneric foo nil (:documentation "Ipso facto")) #<STANDARD-GENERIC-FUNCTION FOO {6901DFA5}> CL-USER> (documentation 'foo 'function) NIL }}}
If one inspects the generic function in SLIME, one sees that the documentation slot does have a value, so this is a problem in DOCUMENTATION.
