I apologize in advance for the stupid newbie question that follows. I have the two systems below. When I change a file in cl-farm, it recompiles it, but when I demand loading of cl-farm-test again, ASDF does not recompile it, even though its dependency has changed. Why? Is this expected.
It is normal behavior for ASDF: Recompilation will only ever be triggered for components in the same module. (I'm not saying it's a good thing!)
That's actually not correct. ASDF fixed part of this problem. Cross-module changes DO trigger recompilation in ASDF 2. But cross SYSTEM changes do not.
Huh, ok, then I was operating on outdated information. Last I looked, it was modules. In that case - nice work!
Thanks for the correction,
At the expense of self-advertising, see the paper that Faré and I wrote about the new state of ASDF:
