Trying again:
Can someone please state what it is that Quicklisp needs?
IIUC Quicklisp does *something* with .asd files that does not involve the defsystem-depends-on being resolved.
Is this reading? Or loading?
If it's loading, then the DEFSYSTEM-DEPENDS-ON entries are resolved by REGISTER-SYSTEM-DEFINITION, so the status quo doesn't solve the problem of large scale analysis without side-effects.
If it's reading, then my solution is benign.
At least as far as I can tell.
Can someone give me a clue here?
Quicklisp needs to compute the complete dependency graph between systems, given a set of .asd files. I'd like to extend the current Slime integration to search for systems in all registered .asd files and autocomplete. All sorts of things become possible if one could treat a set of .asd files as a database, with the guarantee that querying would never trigger a compile-file operation, ever. -- Stelian Ionescu a.k.a. fe[nl]ix Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur.
